  2. On review of past donations to the Locale organization and the logical arguments for research by Ms. Sicula it was thought that the money could be best used on research.

  3. Our chapter keeps the members informed of law changes in Washington and tries to be helpful to the members who need it.

    That was one question I didn't ask about at the convention. I will contact the NARFE Chairperson and ask if we will receive some recognition. I will see to it that you get your answer.
    Lenora,
    June Griffin is speaking for Chapter 2247 in her comment below. Will we receive something from either NARFE or the Alzheimer's organization? I direct this question to you, because I feel you have the answer. Please give it your attention.
