a message from Bonni McKeown Finally—the project that brought me to spend most of the past two years in Chicago is about to come out in print: the autobiography of West Side bluesman Larry Taylor: Stepson of the Blues: A Chicago Song of Survival. Thanks to many F(f)riends who offered your hospitality, encouragement, and readings of early drafts.

In support of Oak Park Friends and the family of the late Tom Dix (Oak Park Friends Meeting), MCGM’s Meeting for Business on November 6, 2009 approved a donation of $400 to the Proviso Math and Science Academy’s Robotics program.
Tom started the robotics program at PMSA in 2006 to train students in computer, design, building, and presentation skills.
