[Nfbwv-talk] ANNIVERSARY

[Jack Yahnke]

Wow!  1996 - that was the year that I went to Institute for my Blind 
Adjustment and Mobility training.  I still hadn't adjusted to the facts of 
my blindness.  Time sure does fly!  Congratulations to Ed and Karen, Mary 
and Glen.  As the song says, "See you in September".

Jack

>> On this date in 1996--it was, in fact, a Friday--the NFB of West Virginia 
>> was in convention in Parkersburg. I was affiliate president, and Ramona 
>> Walhof was national representative.
>>
>> Around 9:00 PM, following a somewhat stormy meeting of the board of 
>> directors--Karen and I kicked off the annual reception by taking our 
>> wedding vows in the company of our Federation family.
>>
>> Seventeen years later we spent much of the day making preparations for 
>> our upcoming state convention. Earlier this evening we also enjoyed a 
>> nice dinner at our local eatery in the next block in the company of my 
>> mother-in-law whom many of you know. I am now about to go out to the 
>> porch and clip some fresh mint for making a julep or two.
>>
>> I am grateful to the "lovely and talented" Karen McDonald for those 
>> seventeen happy years of marriage. The two of us are also grateful  to 
>> you all in our NFB family for getting us off to a good start and for your 
>> love and support along the way.
>>
>> Also, greetings to our colleagues, Glen and Mary Grogg, who celebrate 
>> their anniversary on this day as well.
