[Ohio-Talk] Jeannie Massay dies

[Barbara Pierce]

I am deeply grieved to tell you of the death in her sleep last night of Jeannie Massay. Jeannie was the treasurer of the NFB. She has fought a gallant battle with diabetes. She told her brother last evening that she was ready for hospice, and then with her signature efficiency and determination, she quietly slipped away before she could trouble anyone. Jeannie was a deeply committed Federationist. We knew this was coming, but I find myself tearing up and feeling empty. 

Rest In Peace, Jeannie, Dear,
Barbara

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise expectations for blind people because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and their dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
