>Hello Florida Friends,
>
>It is with a heavy heart that I must tell you that Michael Seay, President
>of the Tennessee Affiliate, passed away Friday evening. Michael has been
>here with me and with Carlos here at the Louisiana Center for the Blind
>since we first arrived. Michael was a wonderful, funny and deeply caring
>person. Only last weekend I traveled to and from the National Center with
>Anil Louis, Pam Allen and Mike to attend the state presidents seminar. The
>four of us so enjoyed the seminar and the fun times we had traveling
>together. Michael was also on my team the preceding weekend in New Orleans
>when we all participated in Mardi Gras. I simply can't take it in that
>Michael is gone and we are all in shock here in Ruston. He loved life and
>always kept us laughing. Moreover he was a dedicated leader in the National
>Federation of the Blind. We have lost a wonderful leader, man and friend.
>
>Please keep his family and the rest of us who are grieving in prayer.
>Michael, you are in a better place but I know you didn't have a clew that
>you would be leaving us so soon.
>
>In sadness,
>

>Here in Ruston Louisiana we are all stunned that Michael Sea, our fellow
>student, valued friend and generally wonderful person has passed away. It is
>simply unbelievable to have spent months together, recently traveled on his
>team in New Orleans at Mardi Gras and only last weekend enjoyed his humor
>and input at the presidents seminar. I got to know Michael really well and
>it is simply not real to me that he will not be with us any more. I will
>miss him terribly as is the case of all the students here at  the Louisiana
>Center for the Blind.

>Let's lift his family and dear friends up in prayer during these shocking
>and grieving times. I am certain you will receive more details about
