Introductory by First Lady, Kathleen Sandoval

It is my honor and privilege to welcome everyone to First Ladies First: A Conversation with Five Former First Ladies. The First Ladies that have gathered here today all have remarkable stories to tell and provide a unique insight into Nevada and how our state operates.

The role of First Lady is many things. You serve as a hostess, advisor, ambassador, and champion for meaningful causes that make our state a better place to live. The First Ladies here today championed issues such as women’s health, combated domestic violence, advocated for children with special needs, and fought against drunk driving to name a few. The work that has been done by these women has impacted generations of Nevadans.

First Ladies Kathryn List, Bonnie Bryan, Sandy Miller, Dema Guinn, and Dawn Gibbons have all touched Nevada in a way that has been profound and lasting. Each of these women has made her mark on our state and all who live here. Other than devotion and love for the Silver State, there is truly no archetype for the role of the First Lady in Nevada. Each woman who takes on that role has the opportunity to recreate this position, and seek the best way to serve our great state. This is an honor that is only enjoyed for a short time, and Kathryn List, Bonnie Bryan, Sandy Miller, Dema Guinn, and Dawn Gibbons all made the most of their time as First Lady. What each of these women has done as First Lady is truly remarkable, and serves as a shining example of what one individual can do to make a difference.
