Any monies spent for attorney fees are mine, not HPOCA funds.  I have never turned in a request for reimbursement for any expenses of this type.  As for insurance, the HPOCA does have an insurance policy to cover any HPOCA member, at any HPOCA event.  This policy also covers any member for errors and ommissions in the magazine, as long as they are acting in the capacity of a member.  The insurance company considers anyone who is paid for their work or contribution (such as an editor) to be acting in a capacity other than that of a member, and are not covered.  This insurance was purchased at the request of the membership.  We have tried for several years to get coverage for the chapters also, but due to the wide geographic area, we have not yet found an insurance company who will consider providing this coverage.  As for the personnel file, all that was said was that this information would be considered a personnel file if the person were an employee.  As I said before, Sherry is free to post the letter if she wants to, she is the only one who can do so.
