She is highly qualified and will help in the transition. I doubt she will want to continue after the end of Bill's term, this year, but if so, she would be a great addition to our board. She is the financial officer for a major institution, and will be able to smoothly take over. As I stated before, the ladder system is used for the Board vacancies. The treasurer will be appointed by the Board and must fulfill certain qualifications. Laurie will not take over as treasurer because of the ladder system. If she does become treasurer, it will be because she is qualified for the job and the Board has appointed her. Tish Anybody remember when Ellie Goede Carson resigned as Corr. Sec. and Charlotte La Rosa was appointed to fill her vacancy? Or when Blanche died and I think Lamar Frederick was appointed to finish out her term? **************************************See AOL's top rated recipes (http://food.aol.com/top-rated-recipes?NCID=aoltop00030000000004) ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2007.
