7 JUL 2014 - 1159 CDT Jim, I thank you for your ideas, suggestions, and support in working on ARRL board business. I will miss your presence on the board, but I also have confidence that your replacement will continue your good work. I have really enjoyed our friendship over these years and I hope we keep it up after your retirement from the ARRL board. I wish you good health and happiness in retirement. 73 - Dick, W9GIG
