This is Dee, and I've been the LBFA's Facebook Administrator the past several years. I've enjoyed this work tremendously.... and it's my time to step down, step aside, and allow other energetic folks to step up, step in, and work their own brand of magic for LBFA and our goals toward Citizen Diplomacy.

Congratulations to Ryan Little, your new FB Administrator.
Slán! (good bye)
