In August 2008 the Roberts Society Executive Board established two memorial awards in the names of two of our most cherished charter members—Sparrow Stoneback and Terry Ward. These awards, to be presented at our annual April conference, were designed to encourage participation in our conferences by 1) first-time presenters and 2) presenters with no institutional funding support. A call for donations to the awards fund went out in the summer of 2008 and thereafter. The Roberts Society expresses its deep gratitude to all contributors.
Donations to sustain the Memorial Awards program may be made at any time. Contact Tina Iraca, EMRS Treasurer at tinair@hotmail.com, or send a check made out to Tina Iraca, with notation of amounts to be applied to the Sparrow Memorial Award and the Terry Ward Memorial Grant to: Tina Iraca, 16 Montgomery Street, Tivoli, NY 12583.
