FIRST Family member, Don Bossi, President of FIRST, underwent colon cancer surgery yesterday. The surgery went very well, but his recovery period will be extensive. He will be doing little, if any, travel this competition season, though he (and we, of course) are hoping he will be able to attend FIRST Championship. Don is a wonderful President of FIRST and is greatly admired for his leadership, vision, easy-going style, and work ethic. I hope you will join the FIRST staff in wishing Don a full recovery! In case you would like to send a note or card of encouragement, you can send it to the attention of Don at: FIRST, 200 Bedford St, Manchester, NH 03101, and we’ll be sure to get it to him. (Don loves to hear what FIRST means to our community, so if you do send a note, I’m sure a few words about what FIRST means to you would be appreciated!)
I had the opportunity to ask a question to Frank Merrick tonight on GameSense, on how we can send best wishes to Don electronically.
Per Frank, if you’d like to send a note to Don, email dbossi@<the same domain as the new main website>. (Least I can do is try to save him from some SPAM.
