The last few days have culminated in a very stressful and painful time for me. </div><div><br></div><div>I will not go into detail but only hope and pray that the philosophies that have long been the foundation of this amazing Association are upheld and not replaced by people furthering their own personal agendas and need for kudos.</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you all for your support and encouragement over the years during my time as a Director. I will still remain involved to the limited extent Life Members are allowed.</div><div><br></div><div>Warmest regards,<br id="lineBreakAtBeginningOfSignature"><div dir="ltr"><div>J<i>an Pike O</i>AM, PLY</div><div>Life Member RDA(NSW)</div><div>0416525192</div><div><div class="WordSection1" style="page: WordSection1;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm;"><o:p style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> </o:p><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> </span></p> </div></div><div class="WordSection1" style="page: WordSection1;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div></div></div></div></body></html>
