Before I officially wrap up, I just want to say a big thank you to the amazing board members who’ve been by my side over the years. Diane Laferriere was the Treasurer when I first got involved. She’s the one who encouraged me to join the board in the first place—she called me up around nomination time and said, “You’d be great on the board.” She saw something in me—a willingness to help out and maybe even lead someday. Diane’s been a great mentor and my go-to person more times than I can count. I started as Secretary eight years ago, moved on to Vice President, and then—thanks to your support—became President two years ago, following in the footsteps of Diane Brooks-Sherry. Huge thanks to her for setting me on the right path and helping me ease into the role. Big shoutout to Bonnie Croteau, our Treasurer, for all her help over the years—keeping our finances on track, stepping up with speaker arrangements, and just being an all-around steady presence. Thank you to Nancy Dimento-Jerome for always being such a warm and welcoming face at our meetings and for all the ways you’ve pitched in to help the chapter thrive. And to Kelly Fox, our former VP—your advice and encouragement have meant the world to me. You've always been someone I could turn to, and I’m so grateful for that. Like I always say: it takes a village. None of this has ever been about “I”—it’s always been about “we.” To the next President, whoever you may be—I’m rooting for you. I’ll still be around as a proud MV member and I’m excited to see where the chapter goes from here. With gratitude, Carol Katsulis,  MV Chapter President
