[nfbwatlk] Andrew Narotuk`

[kris Lawrence]

Vicki and Andrew have been long time members of the Greater Seattle 
Chapter. Vicki has been our phone person who reminds us all about 
upcoming meetings, events and checks in with each and every one of us to 
see how we are doing.  Always ready to lend a hand at picnics and 
Christmas parties. As a chapter and personnally we are very sad to learn 
of Andrew's impending death. Be sure that Vicki has our prayers and 
support during this time.

I would like to invite any members to send emails or notes remembering 
Andrew to me. I will put them together and have them Brailled and then 
give them to Vicki. Please send these to me by May 17th. If you would 
like to write something more personnal that is not read by me, then come 
to the meeting where we will have a Perkins available so that you can 
write your own message.
He will be missed.

President, NFBW Greater Seattle Chapter
