"Today is a momentous day ...a truly special lady is being recognized for her hard work and dedication. 

 

I am speaking of my friend, Charlene A. Francis.

 

It did my heart good when SeniorNet's Board of Directors recognized Charlene's 21 plus years of service with a scholarship fund in her name.

 

I have known Charlene both personally and professionally for more than ten years.  And during that time she has exhibited passion, loyalty and genuine caring for the SeniorNet mission.

 

Charlene is always thinking of new and innovative ways to bring the latest technology advances to seniors ...enabling them to benefit the same as others.

 

I am proud to call Charlene my friend and thank her for all that she has done to help enrich people's lives.

 

Congratulations Charlene!"
