Chris is a long time member of Dignity and currently the President of Dignity Chicago.  We know that that fact alone brings Chris accolades and thanks.  But the Board wants to especially recognize Chris for the work that he has done with the Board in our process of strategic planning.  Chris is a gifted facilitator and thinker and can guide a group, even one as difficult as we were, with insight and efficiency without losing his sense of humor.  He has been very generous with his talents and time; his commitment to Dignity is unwavering and we have much to thank him for.  He has also been a partner of chapters who have chosen to work with him to develop their own group's vision and plans for growth.  Thank you, Chris.
