Steve! Congratulations. It’s been an honor to work with you and to have you as our NACDD President. You are a diplomat and a master of mediating process. I hope Vicki and you
continue to have many exciting trips, and that you’re able to see those America’s Cup ships again (possibly back in San Diego?). Wishing you many years of health and happy adventures.

Subject: DD Councils Kansas ED Retirement
On June 24, 2022, I will be retiring from the Kansas Council on Developmental Disabilities. I am looking forward to spending more time with my wife, traveling and working on my farm. I have
served as the Kansas Executive Director for a little over 10 years now and it has been a wonderful experience. For the 33 years prior to this I worked for a large nonprofit providing disability services.
When accepting the position, little did I know that one of the highlights of this job would be getting to know all the other Executive Directors and staff from the others states. I have had
the privilege to work with many of you as NACDD Board President 2019-2021. I believe we are very fortunate to have a great National organization with strong well qualified staff and leadership.
The Council has not announced the new ED yet but knowing that you will all welcome and help the next Kansas Executive Director in this important work makes my leaving much easier. As I visit
other states I think of each of you and the great work you are doing. Vicki and I plan on traveling to all the states, and hopefully all the territories as well over the next few years.
Thank you all, not only for all the help, but for being the most welcoming and creative people that I have ever known.
See ya all down the road,
