[Nfbwv-talk] Glenn Wilson

[Sheri Koch]

Thanks Charlene for sending that out in the body of an email. Our NFB affiliate is taking plastic picnic plates, napkins, cups, silverware, a cheesecake and some Italian pasta salad. I also have a card from the affiliate. I'll be going to the viewing tonight and the funeral mass tomorrow.
