2020-21 Webinar Series Recordings

Dear Members and Guests

Our 2020-21 season was a difficult one with the COVID pandemic keeping us from safely having dinner meetings. However, with the help of Legend Financial Services of Pittsburgh, PA, who provided us webinar services, we were able to bring you some excellent speakers on some very timely topics. The links to the recordings of these webinars are given below in case you missed a webinar or would like to view one or more again.

Happy viewing,

Howard Davison

FPA President
