[NFBWATlk] Joyce Scanlan dies

[Bennett Prows]

The sad news about Joyce is definitely a loss for the movement. She attended several Washington state conventions, and was a great national rep on a couple of occasions. She was instrumental in uniting the Minnesota NFB which had two affiliates at one time. She certainly be missed.

If I understand BLIND Inc.'s history correctly, Joyce was the first executive director and founder of BLIND Inc.  I vividly remember attending a meeting at a national convention where Joyce talked about how BLIND Inc. students tended to stay in Minnesota when they finished their blindness skills training  and someone I was sitting next to said, "that's because they were frozen in place."

My condolences to Joyce's family and friends and gratitude for her contributions to the blind of the country.
