There were many Q&#038;As that helped the audience understand the SSI\/SSDI\/SS better.<br \/>\nThe DAD Honorary Awards evening turned out to be an awesome evening. I believe everyone who came that evening enjoyed themselves. I want thank Herb Picou, chairperson, and his committee for planning this great event, Herb&#8217;s daughter, Liz, for taking so many wonderful pictures and Kathy Walters from CSDVRS for sponsoring the master of ceremonies as well as the interpreters. Please do click the following link to see who all received awards:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.dallasdeafclub.org\/powerpoint\/AWARDS.pps (PPT format)<br \/>\nThe third DAD\/DFWA co-sponsored &#8216;job -related workshop&#8217; was presented by Tashee Gates from DARS.
