Subject: [ ] Sad News for the Bernard Family

I just got the sad news that Sallie's son died today. For those that don't

know -Sallie Bernard is one of our heroes in the fight for awareness for autism

and the possible causes. Here's one link which refers to her son .

http://www.whale.to/v/bernard.html And here's more about Sallie:

Sallie Bernard - Executive Director

Sallie Bernard is a co-founder and the Executive Director of SafeMinds. She has

testified before Congress, presented to the Institute of Medicine, published a

number of research papers and letters in science journals, and participates in

several government committees addressing the effect of mercury on

neurodevelopment. She previously served as board chair for CAN and executive

director of the New Jersey chapter, helping to secure millions of dollars for

autism research and treatment. She is a member of the board of directors of

Autism Speaks and a member of the Founders Forum for The Autism Center of UMDNJ

in New Jersey.

Bernard is also co-founder and president of Extreme Sports Camp, a nonprofit

summer camp for older children and teenagers with autism. The camp offers

outdoor sports and recreation including hiking, rock climbing, swimming, rafting

and water skiing.

Sallie is the founder and former president of ARC Research, a full service

market research and marketing consulting firm which she sold in 2004. She

graduated with honors from Radcliffe College, Harvard University, in 1979. She

Dear Friends:

This weekend we received an email from CUE co-chair Sallie Bernard sharing the

sad news that her son had died on Monday. We don’t have any more

information at this time, but will update you should we know more about

Our hearts go out to Sallie and her family. We know each of you will keep her in

your thoughts.

Best,
