Mount Laurel, NJ (PRWEB) November 13, 2013 -- It is with great sadness that the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) announces the death of Immediate Past President and long-time member, Angela F. Wallace, CPO®, of Novato, CA, who passed away on November 12, 2013 after a brief illness.
One of the first 200 professional organizers worldwide to earn a Certified Professional Organizer (CPO®) designation, Ms. Wallace was an active NAPO member for the past 20 years, and leaves a remarkable legacy of service and volunteer leadership. Throughout her NAPO membership, she assumed multiple local and national volunteer leadership positions, including serving as president of the association from 2011 – 2013. A firm believer in mentoring and leadership development, she most recently served on the Board of Directors as Immediate Past President and as Chair of the Nominating Committee.
