Sober 24 years at the time of this talk, the event was held outdoors near an airport.
Bill first introduces in order: His wife Lois W, co-founder of Al-Anon, Bill's sponsor Ebby T from Dallas, TX and Sister Ignatia - the nun who helped Dr. Bob open the hospitals to alcoholics.
Then Bill tells his story and ends with a message of hope for AA and all the alcoholics still out there suffering and yet to suffer.
Since this event took place four months before I was born, I am glad the message was heeded, and AA was hear for mw when I needed it 49 years later.
NOTE: This recording has been remastered and is now much easier to listen to (though I could do nothing about the occasional plane flying over).
