[Ohio-Talk] Jeannie Massay dies

[Suzanne Turner]

Barbara,

I am devastated! She was a role model of mine. A hero and a very dedicated member. Going to her membership meetings were always inspirational, uplifting and knowledgeable. My heart hurts for her and her family. I just left you a voice message! I can’t not even breathe right now. Oh God I cannot believe this!

My condolences to her family with love!
Suzanne

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.

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.
