Gail,

I want to publicly THANK YOU for moderating this list. I have greatly
appreciated and *used* the resources that you and others have posted here. I
subscribe to other NIFL lists but they do not fill the same role - I am very
sorry to see this list discontinued.

Thanks for all you have done - and are doing - for family literacy!

Betsy
