It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of longtime NABCJ member and friend,  Mary Louise Cuffee.

 

Mary Louise was an icon for this organization. She was a devoted member of the District of Columbia Chapter, and served in various leadership roles in that chapter, as well as serving in various national conference committee roles.  She is a life member,  a NABCJ Wall of Fame inductee, recipient of the Medgar Evers Award and served on NABCJ’s National History Committee.  Mrs. Cuffee was also instrumental in the organization securing its 501c3 status and the creation of Lifetime Membership for NABCJ.  Mrs. Cuffee's contributions and energy will be missed, but she has left a legacy with NABCJ.
