The Farewell Party for Diane and Ron Crawford was well-attended. Tributes to Diane and Ron came not only from our club members but from Mayor Tom Hayes who read a heartwarming Proclamation declaring May 27, 2021 as Diane and Ron Crawford day in Arlington Heights listing many of the things the two of them have been involved with in their many years in town. Also, Steve Dudenhoefer, founder and headmaster of Ak'Tenamit joined us via Zoom to share his comments and thanks for all the things Diane and Ron have done for the school and its students. Karen Baker read a very touching letter written to Diane by a staff member at POC in Palatine.
The quality of the recording is less than perfect, but we share it here for those of you unable to attend in person.
