RSVP Director Retires After 14 Years

Joan Meeder, RSVP Director since 1999, is retiring as of May 31.  Her replacement, current RSVP Program Assistant Janet Pasier, will take over on June 1.  Joan has given her time and talents to the RSVP program for fourteen years and the volunteers love her.  Would you believe she calls every RSVP Volunteer on their birthday!?  Joan will be difficult to replace, but she has been and will be training Jan until her last day to ensure a smooth transition.  The RSVP Volunteers are in good hands with Jan!

If you’d like to wish Joan farewell, please send correspondence to 788 E. Clay St.  Decatur, IL 62521 or email dove@doveinc.org

Happy Retirement, Joan!  You will be missed!

This includes the Nationally Renowned Mother-to-Mother program, a programming concept that has been widely adopted across the country. Sue’s presence still shines through those of us who have come along beside her. Her commitment to...
