Congratulations Nashville Chapter

During the Southeast Regional Conference in July, we took 1st

place for the Chapter that performed the most activities.

Yes, we beat our rivals Atlanta and Memphis!

But we must keep the momentum

going in order to retain our position.

Let’s keep up the amazing work!

Retirement Celebration

Well wishes to Rhonda Pearson...

“All of your hard work has paid off!

It’s time for you to take that vacation you have

been craving for without worrying about

getting to work the next day. You deserve it!

Happy Retirement!”

Rhonda retired Friday, August 3, 2018. She was a

very dedicated worker and always helped any-

one in need of assistance. Rhonda will be missed

by her peers! Thank you for being an AIMS

Member!

Queenie Sutton underwent heart surgery at the end of July. Her procedure

was successful. She was in attendance at the 2018 Annual Business Meeting

continues to recuperate.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of healing!
