Following the luncheon, Bob led a general
discussion on the potential merger
of the Headlighters and VALUR. He
advised the
proposed Mission for the combined new group would be Socializing, Volunteerism,
Communications and Unum. The initial
name for the new group would be “Unum
Retirees”. The meeting was open
for Q & A. A vote was put to all
