On The Road

Posted by on April 16, 2008 in Staff News

I will be traveling tonight on the late flight out of Alaska. We had six inches of snow yesterday and I think I will find green grass in my final destination–Illinois. IFC has many friends and partners in mid-state Illinois.

My friend, Terry Holderread, invited me to come to Illinois in 2003. We called him “Brother Terry” which fit him so well. He was a brother and friend to everyone. I miss him since his death last year. I would get regular notes from him and lots of encouragement.

There are so many of our partners in mid-Illinois and it will be good to see them again. This is a big part of our work–building friendships and new partners.

I will be on the road for the next two weeks.
