LETTER FROM May all of you have a very Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year! I am pleased to see what ULEDF has become in a very short time and I thank every member for making us the leader in our community. The fact that we were able to get Jan to become our Executive Director was the highlight of my tenure as Chairman. Her sincere enthusiasm has allowed us to stay focused and motivated. The Chairmanship has been passed to Todd Citron of Hub City Ford, and I am very sure that he will lead ULEDF to new heights with his great vision! May God Bless, Herbert Schilling
