Ms. Brown is phenomenal. I made a cold call to her to get information on becoming an Ombudsperson and she was so forthright and proud of her profession. She pointed me in the right direction and gave me a list of written resources to review. I wish you much enjoyment in your retirement Ms. Brown and thank you.
