Dear All, I am very sorry, but I won't be able to participate in today's call. I had planned to take part and moved my meetings around but then just about 15 min ago a personal emergency arose and I have to attend to it. My sincere apologies. With respect to the Chair and Vice-Chair and if there is a vote I would like to cast my vote for Kathy for chair and Emily for Vice-Chair or, if there is a requirement for proxy I hereby appoint Rod Beckstrom (as our interim Chair) as my proxy vote holder. Again my apologies. Beat wishes, Kim Please excuse my typos! This is sent from my iPhone.
