Doloris’ second year of her presidency was certainly a journey, in more ways than one! Our 2019-20 theme was Cultural Awareness through Literature, and the presentations took us around the world. This fascinating program came to an abrupt halt in mid-March 2020 when our Club, and the world, shut down. Uncertainty ruled throughout the spring and summer, as Plan A turned into B, then C… Doloris devoted considerable time and effort to keep in touch with everyone — not just about the logistics of the club as changes had to be made — but to reach out to members: Were they well? Did they need anything? She went far above and beyond the role of President. She has steered us through with creativity and determination.

Here are the Remarks that she would have presented at our Spring AGM.
