LPBA Friends:

As most of you know, our dear friend and fellow Co-Pilot, Leslie Doll, passed away in December as the result of a tragic automobile accident. We are all still wondering why someone who made such a difference to so many should be lost to us so soon.

Leslie was a force of nature who overcame many challenges in her own life and inspired others to do the same. Anyone who had the privilege of knowing her could not help but be touched by her good humor, compassion, tenacity, and spirit.

Leslie was also a disciplined athlete who expressed to us a strong interest in the “Fun Run/Walk/Talk” at our LPBA meetings. Leslie had volunteered to take the lead in revitalizing that event, so, as we thought about how best to honor Leslie’s memory, the “Fun Run/Walk/Talk” immediately came to mind.

We are dedicating the walk/run at the upcoming LPBA Meeting in Las Vegas to our friend, Leslie. We hope that you will join us in “Stepping Out for Leslie” on Saturday, March 16th.

We want to stress that this is not just a Co-Pilots’ event and that our goal is to achieve 100% participation by meeting attendees and guests.

Whether or not you can make it to Vegas, you can support this cause by purchasing shirts for delivery to either the meeting site (recommended if you are attending) or directly to your home.

Shirts shipped to Vegas will be distributed to walk/run participants at the meeting, but there will be no in-person sales.

We hope that you will join us in this tribute to Leslie.  If you have not yet registered for the meeting, please consider coming to Vegas for what will undoubtedly be another unforgettable LPBA experience.

If you are unable to attend, we hope that you will join us in spirit by donning your shirt and going out for a walk or run on that special Saturday morning—wherever you may be.

Looking forward to “Stepping Out” with you on March 16th.

With gratitude,
Chris Steinberg – chslegal@aol.com; and
The LPBA Co-Pilots
