Take care Gary, it has been a pleasure serving with you, and of course we will keep in touch thru private e-mails. 73 amigo, Tuck Gary Johnston wrote:
As of Noon on January 1st I will fade into the long list of ARRL members who have honorably served as Directors of our fine organization. I have fond memories of each of you, and hope we can stay in contact as friends.
As you have already discovered, my successor is a worthy and qualified gentleman who I believe will represent the Great Lakes Division, Amateur Radio Service, and ARRL well. I'm sure you will enjoy meeting and working with Jim throughout his coming term. Dick is also highly qualified, and you will find him to be a valuable resource to the Board, as he has been to me during my time as Director.
I wish each of my colleagues and friends on the board and staff a safe and fun New Year's Eve.
73, Gary KI4LA
