THANK YOU CAROLE CHRISTIANSON FOR YOUR COMMITMENT AND DEDICATION

THANK YOU!

Today marks the end to a significant chapter in my life.

I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with the leadership of the Western Association of Food Chains, past and present, over the past 15 years.

We have accomplished much thanks to your passion and commitment to our purpose ”’Advancing the Food Industry through Education and Leadership”.

It has been a blessing and honor to get to know you,, your families and associates. Words are inadequate to convey how much your support, kindness and compassion expressed to me and my family, especially when we lost Paul, will never be forgotten.

Thanks to the partnership of the Illuminators and the WAFC, I met Paul Christianson with the Keebler Company in 1984 while serving on the Illuminators Greeters Committee at the WAFC Convention in San Antonio. What a gift of synchronicity!

Although bittersweet, I am so excited about WAFC’s future as Pat Posey takes the helm as your Chief Operating Officer. The best
