I got what I needed, thanks. I wrote up a tribute for the AAPT

Newsletter coming out soon. We will probably do something at the

Convention in North Carolina in August, as well.

Thanks,

Fred

Fred,

Were you able to find the email addys okay? If not just go to the site

address:

<>

<

<> >

Then find the post from the individual that you wold like to quote,

next to it should be there email address. Again if you can not find

the email addresses, email me privately (again) and I will get them to

you so that yo can personally ask them.

I have a different page to see being the owner of the site. But I do

think that everyone who posts has their email address nextot their

post available. Please correct me if I am wrong!

Will this be for the NC or SA AAPT meeting?

Thanks

Jeanetta

Hi Everyone,

In honor of Larry C. Nesmith CPhT, Tech Lectures has donated 50 Review

Manuals to 5 Pharmacy Technician programs nationwide. In

continuation, Tech Lectures has also sent a check to the American

Association of Pharmacy Technicians or AAPT in the amount of 250.00 to

help defray costs associated with the upcoming convention and event

honoring this great man.

Please consider donating to AAPT yourself in honor of Larry Nesmith

CPhT, as this is a true non-profit organization that does depend on

donations and volunteers of which Larry played an intricate part.

Tell them Tech Lectures said it was alright!
