[Fredslist] "Fred"...in one word

[Sherry Rivera]

Steve when I went to your meeting last year for the first and only time I
was impressed with your creativity and your ability to carry on a
successful meeting while "following the beat of a different drummer".  Your
meeting was unique and I appreciated it then as I still do.
 I occasionally have mentioned it at other meetings.

This exercise of yours was so creative.  I am sure everyone who was there
thoroughly enjoyed participating, and it was such a wonderful way of giving
tribute to the MAN who is there for everyone and really tries to help and
move things on behalf of Gotham member's.  I think we all forget the
challenges he has and how difficult it must be to keep all the balls in the
air that he juggles.  I quote:  "IT ISN'T EASY BEING FRED"

For me, I am happy he is such a good juggler and appreciate what he has
created, I think I share this with many other Gotham members.
