ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY ATLANTA, INC.

101 MARIETTA STREET BLDG,
ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30303

c. 0. EMMERICH
ADMINISTRATOR



June 28, 1967

To: EOA Staff Members

Mr. Emmerich's death is a tragic shock to the entire metropolitan
Atlanta community. His concern for his fellowman, his superb ad-
ministrative skill, his seemingly inexhaustible vitality, and his
full commitment to the activities for which he was responsible
combined to make him a truly effective leader.

The Board of Directors of Economic Opportunity Atlanta share with
the staff and all those who knew and worked with Mr. Emmerich a
deep sense of personal loss. Officially, he can not be replaced;
he can only be succeeded.

In respect to his memory, all offices of Economic Opportunity
Atlanta will close Thursday, June 29, at 1:00 p.m. Mr. Emmerich's
funeral will be held at 3:00 p.m., Thursday, June 29, in the
Trinity Chapel of the A. S. Turner Funeral Home, 2773 North Decatur
Road.

The strong administrative organization Mr. Emmerich created, with
full backing of the Board, will continue EOA activities through
the three Associate Administrators in their respective fields.

As customary, the senior Associate Administrator, who is now

Mr. William G. Terry, will act temporarily as Administrator.

Sincerely,

Boisffuillet nes
Chairman
