I hope I can count on your support for these next couple of years while keep the tradition of making this a wonderful experience for our youth.

I want to thank President Barbara for appointing me as chairperson of this important committee, but I can’t do it alone. It will be very difficult to follow in Eva Lavezzari’s footsteps

Sisters and Brothers, here we are over 17 months into this pandemic and we don’t seem to be getting anywhere. Stay safe, get your vaccine and wear a mask and soon, we just might be ending this crisis.

August 8th passed and it was to be our first post pandemic dinner meeting at our new location but at the last minute, with 103 reservations, we had to cancel. A real disappointment, and many emails and phone calls on my part. I am optimistic that we can meet in October but then, again,

How easy it is to say “I’m glad I got my flu and Covid-19 vaccinations; how hard it is to say “I regret not getting my shots”. Make it easy on yourself, family, friends, neighbors … get it done. General George Washington himself
