In Loving Memory of Bobbie Thomson
Bobbie was elected President in 1999. She was dedicated to dancing and made a huge contribution to the dancing community by being one of the leading forces that started this chapter. She passed away on Wednesday, May 17, 2006, due to complication following knee surgery. On behalf of the Board of Directors and Members of the Tallahassee Chapter 6010, we salute our leader and friend Bobbie Thomson for she will be greatly missed.
