Some really great news. Of all the questions I receive from you, the most ask "how is Lester doing?" For all of you, last night Lester Rosenberg, almost mortally injured in a car crash one year ago, attended our Chicago Federation Board meeting. Although physically absolutely limited, Lester looked wonderful -- actually, but for his disabilities, a picture of health. He is sharp, as he told Beth Cherner, our great Development Director, and me -- "I remember every solicitation I've made and every gift." His mind is keen; and he spoke beautifully to the Board from his wheelchair. All of you know how beloved Lester is; so it won't surprise you to learn that our Board members, without regard to age, lined up to welcome Lester, to kiss him and to express our love for him.
