As I am sure you can imagine things have been quite busy on the board level. All of our committees are wrapping current projects up and preparing them for the new board to take over.
We are extremely excited for convention this year and are looking forward to seeing each of you. If you have not already done so, please submit your registration as we are trying to finalize numbers for the educational seminars and Presidents’ Banquet. If you are on the fence, we encourage you to come. We have a fantastic event planned.
Discussions with CSS continue. We have had meetings with different levels of government as per your direction to advocate for low-income Albertans and Funeral Professionals. Those meetings are being followed up on and we hope to have more to report on this topic after our AGM on Saturday.
This is my last report to you as President of the Alberta Funeral Service Association. I would like to thank each of you for your support over the last year. The amount of work the board has achieved over the last 12 months is astonishing. I would like to personally thank each and every one of you for your time and the commitment to this board. I am so thankful that not only are you my colleagues but also friends. I wish the incoming board and its executives much success and look forward to working with them as Past President.

Warm regards,
Chris G. Jong
