Here is a note from Paul Kupelian, regional VP, to our chapter president, Paul Eccardt, explaining the PTG board decision regarding our request for a chapter name change:

Paul,

I just returned from the mid year Board meeting. I am disappointed to report that the Board did not approve the proposed name change. Please understand that this in no way was done because Ernie was not deserving of it. Indeed if anyone is deserving of this kind of recognition, it was Ernie. The main reason it wasn't approved was because of the potential of many other chapters wanting to rename their chapters in recognition of a favorite son. They did recommend that you may want to consider a national award to honor Ernie's name similar to the Jack Greenfield award.

Again, my regrets concerning this matter.

Fraternally yours,

Paul
Paul Kupelian, NERVP
