GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE
AT Fall Conference 2004 !

Ann Durall and Donna McLean shop in different stores, in different cities, but they arrived at the Fall Conference dinner in the same lovely outfit…. Just different colors!

GFWC LANDMARK Woman’s Club hosts
RUSSIAN DOCTORS

When Russian Doctors are selected to visit St. Jude Hospital in Memphis, their first action is to get Dorothy and Neil Crader’s email address from those Medical Personnel who have visited Memphis in the past. The new group contacts Dorothy as soon as they arrive in Memphis, knowing that they will be met with friendly ‘natives’ who make sure their stay in Memphis is filled with activities and entertainment.

Again this year, two doctors were sent to St. Jude Hospital for training in children’s oncology. Dorothy and Neil arranged tours for Dennis and Larisa to fill their spare time. A dinner party at the Crader’s home was the highlight of this group’s visit, and was well attended by members of Landmark Woman’s Club and other international neighbors.

L –R: Larisa, Dorothy and Dennis
