Messages from Our Past Presidents

Wisdom from Those Who’ve Led the Way

Our past presidents have each left a lasting mark on NAWBO Buffalo Niagara. This page honors their leadership, vision, and commitment through personal messages that reflect on their time at the helm. Their insights serve as a bridge between our legacy and our future—offering inspiration, gratitude, and guidance for the leaders of tomorrow.

Where did the time go? Today I will be named Immediate Past President of the Buffalo Niagara Chapter of NAWBO. I have sincerely enjoyed leading such an amazing chapter filled with extraordinarily talented women. We have much to be proud of and the best is yet to come.

To My NAWBO Sisters, keep shining and showing your #nawbownypride. The campaign to get a picture with my chapter sisters continues.

Paula and Andrea, I am honored to call you my President and my President Elect. May you have an extraordinary year and know that I have your back.

Love,
Sherrie Barr Mack

To my NAWBO sisters: Our strength lies in our sisterhood. Within our membership is a powerful network of women with deep wisdom, insight, and experience. Don’t hesitate to lean into that community. Ask questions. Start conversations. Show up. What you’ll find in return is a circle of women ready to support you every step of the way.

To our incredible leadership team, committee chairs, and past presidents—thank you for your tireless work and dedication. I’m grateful to be serving alongside you, and I look forward to the year ahead with excitement and purpose.

To my NAWBO sisters: Be true to who you are and good things will happen. Your NAWBO sisters are standing with you to help you today and tomorrow.

I have been blessed to have met many wonderful, knowledgeable colleagues and friends thanks to NAWBO. Our members are what makes our association so unique. Please remember to reach out to them if you have questions about your business or other areas! But you must reach out and ask! Our membership contains a wealth of information just waiting for you!

Thank you, Sherrie, for your past service and congratulations to Paula and her board for another exciting year!
