From The President's Desk:
Dear members and friends of the N.S.A.F.:
I sincerely hope that all of you are in good health. On August 29th at
the Sheraton Hotel in Burlingame the N.S.A.F. elected a new
board of directors. Their names are listed on the left side of
this page. I do wish them the best, welcome aboard!!
Of the many activities that have or will take place in the remaining 2004
I can especially mention that the "Founders Night" evening
was a great event. Once again I want to thank the Consul General
Francesco Sciortino for making it possible and of course my good
friend and honorary member of N.S.A.F., Alessandro Baccari for
his incomparable diligence in conducting the event. A very special
thanks to our gracious mayor Gavin Newsom for his proclamation
in making May 14th a day in San Francisco for the National
Sicilian American Foundation. In this I must recognize our First
Vice President Giovanna Rovetti, thank you. There are so many others
that I should thank, to name a few: Joe Brucia, Marco Fuoco
for his incredible "bronze trinacria" which he donated to
N.S.A.F. - My old friend Tom Vano for having provided the most
comprehensive photographic coverage and also donated his services, thanks Tom.
Thanks to our Vice President Rosa Passanisi, to all board members,
officers past and present, and Sara Scorsonelli, recipient of
the outstanding member award.
Thanks to all our members and donors,
you are doing an incredible job.
Thank you, and God bless you!
Frank Bonfiglio
