I also would like to thank Sharon Scinicariello for volunteering to run for this position and hope that she will be willing to run again as IALLT is always looking for valuable candidates like her. I also would like to thank David Pankratz, chair of the election committee, and Cindy Bravo and Ed Dente, members of the election committee, for their hard work, professionalism, and efficiency. Because of the unfortunate circumstances that made this election necessary, their work was especially difficult. Finally, I have already started working in my official position and am very enthusiastic and eager to serve you. As Peter Liddell, our president, so elegantly said in one of his e-mails $E3Claire is stepping into her new role without much of a grace period, so we will ask for your forebearance as she learns the various duties of President Elect.$E4 Thank you Peter, I will need it, but thanks to your expert leadership, this will be a smooth transition. Thank you $E3all$E4 for your trust. Sincerely, Claire
