[NFBF-L] Sad news Annely Rose passed away

[DENISE VALKEMA]


Greetings federationists,

If is with a heavy heart that I share that Annely Rose passed away. See Jerilyn’s email below.  Please keep the statewide chapter, family, and friends in your thoughts and prayers. 

I worked with Annely at the Miami Lighthouse during a summer children’s program. I
enjoyed working with her, seeing her at conventions, and the statewide chapter meetings.
