[Nfbwv-talk] Article in Braille Monitor

[Darren Burton]

I sent it to a friend of mine from the AT&T advisory board who was a student of Bob's at Wesleyan back in the 50's or 60's.  I believe he is on a Wesleyan advisory board also, and he forwarded it to his colleagues at Wesleyan.  Nice article Ed.

Just for the record, let me say that I actually did not submit the article directly to the Braille Monitor. I wrote most of it several years ago when we inducted Bob into the NFBWV Hall of Honor. Then when Bob died back in July, I updated it slightly and posted it to a couple of NFB discussion lists. Gary Wunder--who is always on the lookout for Monitor material--apparently read it and captured it for publication in the magazine.

I am a bit embarrassed to admit that I had fallen a little behind on reading the Monitor, and I did not know that the piece had been published in the November issue until it was brought to my attention.

I appreciate the fact that Gary considered it to be worthy of publication, but--more important--that he considered Bob's life and his passing to be worthy of recognition in the pages of the Monitor.

Thanks, Jack and Charlene, for your kind words about the piece.

Ed

Charlene,

Thanks for the heads up concerning Ed's article on Bob Hunt.  I never met
the man, but somehow I feel I now know him.  Thanks, Ed.  Your article is
inspiring.  I feel both humbled and inspired.  I just don't know what to
say.

Jack
