Marrissa, I just wanted to express my sympathy for your father's death. My thoughts will be with you and your family. Also, thanks for being so helpful during your time here at bookshare. You were welcoming to us when we were just newbies, and were helpful during the entire volunteer process. I want to wish you the best of luck in graduate school.

My father unexpectedly passed away from a heart attack on May 18, 2005. He was 53 years old, and had just celebrated his 36th wedding anniversary with my dear mother. I will be working with Janice, Gustavo and Carrie over the next few days to make sure everything is in order and on target for my May 31st departure from Benetech. Thanks for being an absolutely wonderful group to work for, and I wish you all the best in scanning, submitting and reading. Best, Marissa Mika
