Message from the President
Greeting ORTA members, I am pleased to be greeting you for the first time as the ORTA President. It is especially exciting to be serving in the year of our 75th Anniversary of the establishment of the Ohio Retired Teachers Association. Over the last two and a half years I have had the privilege and enlightening experience of serving on the Executive Committee with Kara Mendenhall and Bee Lehner, under the guidance of Dr. Robin Rayfield, Executive Director.
I am looking forward, with great anticipation, to serving with our new President-Elect, Dean Dennis, a man of unique talents and dedication to the retired teachers of Ohio.
