ANG President Resigns . . .
On February 2, 2011, ANG members received this note from the association
president, Judith Richardson:
On February 2, 2011, ANG members received this note from the association
president, Judith Richardson:
- It has been my honor to serve on the ANG Board of Directors for
nearly five years, concluding with the office of President.
As I moved through the past year, the personal demands of life have
become more challenging. Care for an aging father with significant
health needs and my own personal health have not allowed me to execute
responsibilities at my personal best. ANG members deserve the best,
and, when one cannot live up to that expectation, it is time to resign.
Per Bylaws the VP for Education, Mary K. Campbell, will preside as
President until April 30. At that time the newly elected President Elect
will move directly into the role of President.
The job of a BOD member requires between 25 -40 hours per week,
and the BOD volunteers take that responsibility most seriously. I
applaud each of them for their dedication and support during the past
years. I wish them well in their truly awesome responsibilities in these
difficult financial times.
I hope to see each of you in San Antonio.
Judith Richardson
