I don't mean to sound like Star Jones but...

Longtime regular viewers of The View will remember that on a frequent basis Star Jones would say, “I’m an attorney…” It became a running joke on Saturday Night Live.

So I apologize in advance for using the phrase, “You know I’m on the Board for Legacy...” I'll be using it quite a bit in upcoming posts.

Legacy Community Health Services(formerly Montrose Clinic and The Assistance Fund) is a Federally Qualified Health Center. I serve as Vice Chair and serve on the Executive Committee, Finance Committee, Fund Development Committee and Special Programs Committee. BFF AttyHou (Jim) is also on the Board. He is Chair of the Special Programs Committee and serves on the Fund Development Committee.

So…the reason for me mentioning Legacy is because we have quite a bit going on and I hope that at some point you will attend one of the events or make a contribution. (Online contributions are accepted.)

If you are in the Houston area, we could really use items for the resale shop. BFF AttyHou and I talk about this quite a bit. The store is located at 1232 Westheimer. For information about donating items, you can go by the store (Tue-Sat) or call 713-528-1653.

• Saturday, June 9. 700p-1000p. Artist reception at M2 Gallery, 325 West 19th. A portion of exhibition proceeds go to Legacy.
