(Member Spotlight continued)
What do you plan to do when you retire? Retirement is so far off for me that much planning
hasn’t been implemented. The thought of retirement would be traveling to places like Alaska, Hawaii
and France.
What are your hobbies? My hobbies consist of shopping. I love internet shopping because I can
shop as much and as long as I want uninterrupted.

PAST PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
I just wanted to take this opportunity to say Thank You to the members of the
Florida Chapter for allowing me to serve on the board first as the Membership
director and then as President of this great organization. I have met and worked
with some outstanding people over the last 10 years while I was on the Executive
Board. The board strives to bring exceptional educational opportunities to our
members year after year. I can say in my last ten years I feel we have made great
strides in this area and have been told by more than one person that our Confer-
ences are one of if not the best conferences they have attended. It takes dedication and hard work to
make this chapter what it is and of course we couldn’t do it without you all, our outstanding members.
Florida Chapter of IAAO is the largest chapter and we strive to be the best at what we do! So as I go off
the board at our upcoming conference I encourage those of you who have a desire to give back to the
chapter to do so by volunteering for a committee, get involved, take the challenge. I guarantee it will
be well worth it.
In closing I would like to leave you with this thought:
―We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.‖
-Winston Churchill
