Glad to hear you had a great time in Colorado and that you made some very good contacts.

Janet,

SO SORRY I COULDN’T BE IN DENVER!

You may know that I just had a baby boy, Javier on Oct 8! Pictures: http://bit.ly/1MFiuw

I know it was going to be fabulous meeting and it broke my heart not to be there, because so many wonderful people attend and such exciting ideas are formed.

i am so proud of you and on behalf of all children who are and in the future will be challenged with the lack of the god granted gift of binocular vision which is enjoyed by 95% of the population and just plain taken for granted, i thank you because you CARE ABOUT THEM and are doing a great job towards making it POSSIBLE for them to (like Sue R Barry) experience the joys of perceiving this beautiful America that we are priviledged to live in (IN THIRD DIMENSIOn.
do grant me the pleasure and opportunity to work with you as we take pride in protecting children’ vision together and makeing a difference in their lives.

most sincerely

rachael

Special thanks to the Vision First board of directors for all their support: Dr. Floyd Mizener, Nora Waliczek, Dr. Geoffrey Goodfellow, Dr. Don Brown, Dr. Sam Forzley, Pat Fox, Pat McCollom, Dr. Len Messner, Jackie Multack, Dr. Tom Poswilko, and Dr. Leo Prentice.

I also want to thank Dr. Irving Bennett, Vision First honorary director, who’s always willing to offer his wisdom and encouragement towards our cause.

Did I have some fun while away from the kids and chores? In spite of “high-altitude sickness,” I managed to have a great time in Colorado.

I look forward to the many new friendships made at the convention!
