LeClair Bissell, MD
I have countless fond memories of LeClair over the many years I knew her. She was a truly kind woman who loved to help people learn how to help themselves, me included.
-Penelope P. Ziegler, M.D., FASAM
Special Thank You
Leclair Bissel, longtime member of the Gay and Lesbian Association from 1994, passed away on August 20, 2008 at the age of 80. We at GLMA want to extend a special thank you to Dr. LeClair Bissell, not only for the groundbreaking work she did in her lifetime, but also for her election to pass on her values of LGBT health care equality with a monetary gift to GLMA. Her very generous gift is the most recent to the GLMA Legacy Fund.
The Board of Directors has designated a good portion of her gift to be invested in the future of GLMA. Relocating the office to the Washington, D.C. area for greater policy effectiveness and additional technology investments to improve our web presence, and facilitate greater member networking with social media are among the top priorities.
