Florence has led the organization through difficult times and has
always put as much time into the role as required, with _no_ personal
compensation whatsoever. She gets a few hundred dollars a year to help
her take care of her children while she is attending Board meetings.
Reimbursing her for her dependent care during those times is both
ethical and necessary.

Thank you Florence for continuing to volunteer your free time for the
organization, and for putting up with this kind of nonsense.
