RE: Guest Editor Report

["E. R. Epperson" <kirklee@triad.rr.com>]

I heartedly underscore each positive comment that has been made concerning
the guest editors, Jim Morris and Kelly Norris (in spite of the comment that
each may be an 'orris' root).  The membership of The American Iris Society
possesses an absolute depth and breadth of knowledge and capabilities that
we have just begun to discover and tap into!

 

Thank you Jim and Kelly,

 

E. Roy Epperson

First Vice President

I would like to say Thank You to Jim Morris and Kelly Norris for agreeing

to take on the responsibility of Bulletin Guest Editor.  I look forward

to receiving their issues.
