Greetings!  I hope you survived the unusually hot summer!  “Back to School” and we are into another year of wonderful programs and friendship.  Welcome, new, rejoining, and transfer members – we are very happy to have you.

I am very saddened to report the passing of our long time member, Betty Robinson (Ohara).  She truly loved ikebana and taught till the very end.  See Phyllis Danielson’s Farewell to Betty …

As I’ve mentioned before, new ideas and suggestions are always welcome.  Please feel free to let me know.  I look forward to seeing many of you again this year!

Friendship through Flowers,

Nana G. Bellerud
