Toastmasters District 69

A prayer and a wish for Kylie Lowe

johnkay — Sat, 12 May 2012 11:52:55 +0000

Many of you might remember the Toastmaster who went on stage to evaluate the World President, Gary Schmidt, at the Caloundra Convention.

While we were celebrating the recent convention on Sunday afternoon, Kylie was facing a much greater hurdle in her life – an operation to save her life. Details can be found on her Blog “Kylie Lowe – an unfinished life”

She has also written about her passion for Toastmasters at http://kylieloweanunfinishedlife.blogspot.com.au/search/label/Toastmasters

We at District 69 extend our prayers and wishes for Kylie to overcome the odds and once again shine in our midst.

John Kay, District Governor
