[LPL Board of Directors] Resignation

[Adrien Monteleone]

Howard,

I will still be working with you and Keith to smoothly transition the website 
and to get CiviCRM fully operational.

But I will be taking a break for a week or two.

In Liberty,

Adrien Monteleone - Chairman
Libertarian Party of Louisiana
