FINAL COMMENTS

It has been an honor to serve on the Executive Board for the past three years. I thank all the members of the board and staff of Clarke Association Services, Inc., with whom I have had the privilege to serve. Their professionalism and friendship has made this an extremely rewarding experience-one that I can recommend to anyone. I am pleased that I will be able to continue my involvement with ARLIS/NA in a leadership position as chair of the International Relations Committee, for which I thank incoming President, Jeanne Brown.

Finally, I must give special thanks to Ted Goodman. I have worked with him in his roles of President, Past-President, Administrative Editor, and Co-Chair of the 2004 Conference. His devotion to ARLIS/NA has been a model to me, and his help and advice have been invaluable. We all him a debt of gratitude.
