In my advocacy work on behalf of this organization, I recently had the honor of meeting John Travolta and his lovely wife.  They are just as nice in person as you would believe them to be from watching their films.  I was hoping he would help us with the Silver Alert project, but his work schedule did not allow it.  He may have considered it if he was available; he’s just that kind of person. 

Which leads me to Silver Alert.  This has been going magnificently, thanks to the unselfish efforts of Teresa Vincent, Joan Reedy, Carrie Kufta, Ron Radcliffe, and of course Patsy Oram.  Others have also helped, which is why is has come to be such a significant milestone for us.  While we are honored to have contributed to its success, the real reward is all the lives the Silver Alert program will save.
