I am sorry to hear the bad news Heather. My condolences to Bob and Anne as well. I hope all three of you can find peace, soon. I can step up to help with some of the President's duties (given I am the VP but also the Treasurer). I do have a conflict though. I have a class until 7:20 pm every Tuesday and Thursday evening in Shoreline which will guarantee that I am late to all the general meetings. Maybe the best thing will be to split up the Prez's duties and I know that Erik has already contributed quite a bit so the rest of us should pick up the bits. Everybody take care out there!! Remember this club is supposed to be fun!!!!
