[Nfbf-l] FW: Today's meeting update

[Sherri Brun]

Just wanted to make you all aware of the happenings in the NFB of Central Florida chapter.  Also will have an update regarding one of our chapter members in the next e-mail.  I would like to personally applaud and thank Jerry Heichelbeck for the great job he does as our chapter secretary.  

I also would like to conclude by saying that though I am sad to have to miss the state convention because of family obligations. I know all attending will have a great time and I will see you all at National in July.  

Warmly,

		The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations
of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.  
Together with love, hope, and determination, we transform dreams into reality.

Subject: Today's meeting update

Hello fellow members of the NFBCFC and friends, At today's chapter meeting we got both good and bad news:
1. We want to congratulate Amanda on being selected as a state and national scholarship winner. Amanda, we are so proud of you and wish you continued success in your education and hope these awards will come in handy.
2. We also want to congratulate Marinela on getting a job in Daytona Beach at the Rehab. center. We also want to thank her for all she has done on the fund-raising committee, and when she does move there, we hope she will find happiness and success. She told us that she will probably join that chapter and leave us.
3. We had some people join our chapter today and I will mention them in the minutes of today's meeting later.
4. We have 3 members going to state convention this year: Marilyn, Tanya D. and Amanda Lannan. Many more will attend the national convention in July.
5. Sherri will be traveling to San Diego to visit her two grandchildren and her youngest son, Rhett as he celebrates his 21st.
birthday on May 30th. We wish her safe travels.
6. Now for not so good news: Don Wilkerson is in the hospital at ORMC as a result of diabetic issues. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers as he recovers slowly and hope he will be back with us soon.
Well, that's about all for now, but I will keep all abreast of Don's recouperation as I find out.
Respectfully, Jerry Heichelbeck-secretary
