Marty Folsom has been a part of AAUW NC meetings since 1998. She has been much more than the newsletter editor, she’s been a key member of the board.
Those who attended the convention were given a chance to write their own comments of thanks to Marty. The comments were collected in a booklet and presented to her along with a framed copy of this poster. If you didn’t get a chance to participate in Greensboro, feel free to add a comment!
Whereas you edited out our mistakes and polished our writing until it looked professional, we say “thank you”!
You have done a marvelous job of disseminating information to all members of AAUW NC. We will miss all your contributions to AAUW NC. Thank you from us all.
