On
February 1986, the first EOR newsletter was sent to all individuals
on TIORCO’s mailing list. Every year since, at least three
newsletters have been written and distributed.
Our first newsletter editor was Walter Woolfson, who had a very
“folksy” way of writing; some would say “corny”.
Walter got us off to a great start emphasizing the people in
our business and that we should have fun with our work. Walter
was followed by Kristine Stremel and our current editor, Linda
Ferentchak. The details of the TIORCO progress since 1986 and
our prior history are recorded in the multitude of EOR newsletters.
