KHS - October 2000


Opening of the Mayo Women's Medical Center
Jacksonville Florida - Saturday November 11 2000
A legacy to the memory of John and Lilliam Cannaday.
A couple whse gentle, compassionate and caring lives allowed the Estate to encourage Mayo to build a 3-story -stressed for 8 stories -a design-that is modern...efficient...functional....and exquisitly beautiful...a smashing alignment of glass and concrete...that will focus on the medical-physical and psycholgical-needs of women. This is the first of its kind built from the ground up in the world.

 

KHS RESOLVE:
to create a distance from the local DC GOP Party and other committees and associations connected with it.
METHOD:
Resign from DCRC executive Committee as Ward 2 Chair
Resign from DCRC organization as a whole
Resign from the League Board of Directors
Resign from post Webmeister and Editor of the League Bulletin
Resign from National Federation of Rep Women (NFRW) Fundraising Committee
Refuse-as the second largest individual donor to the GOP DC Party-any further donations to the GOP local or National Party

Reasons-(in my opinion):
financial improprieties...incompetent leadership...missing directors...lack of communication...general ignorance of DC priorities...empty offices...botched files
computer ignorance...faulty loyalty...basic stupidity and dishonesty...financial incompetence.
A recent blunder by the leader of the DCRC delegation to the National convention in Philadelphia who went to convention with one priority-to enter wording for DCRC representation in Congress...did not...and gave the excuse..."I forgot".
This same leader(?) forced 1st VP status on a local black citizen -thinking she would cover the "black" vote-only to learn that he was accused of stealing money from the local ANC. The same leader had no idea that a rising star in the Party was openly gay...and refused to believe it when told.
