<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">I wanted to take a moment to apologize for my lack of communication and participation in the Assessment In Action discussions/progress as well as any other communications from WACTLC or our directors group.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">I lost my father on December 20<sup>th</sup> to a very sudden heart attack. As we were in the process of grieving and taking care of his estate while trying to find a family or nursing home to move my handicapped
 mother into, my mother passed away on January 5<sup>th</sup>. Luckily I was with her the night/morning she passed and we believe she was just ready to join my father (and more stubbornly was not wanting to go to a nursing home). So I have been travelling back
 and forth to Spokane to deal with all this which has left me less attentive to our ongoing AiA discussions.
