MARTHA CERVONE
1936 - 2022

With great sadness our lodge has had to say farewell to another sister. Martha was a member of our lodge for 54 years. Martha was a dedicated homemaker, devoted to her family, with a love of books and crossword puzzles. She readily helped with lodge dinner dances and meetings
through the years and always had open arms for visitors at home. Martha will be missed by so many within our community and our lodge. Until we meet again sister Martha.

Dear Brothers and Sisters,
I am honored to have been given the opportunity to help grow our membership and promote the wonderful culture we share through our Italian Roots and American Branches.

Message From the State President

This past month has been a whirlwind of activity. Ken and I were in Chico with the Vincenzo Bellini Lodge for the Western Foundation’s Golf Outing. I declined to participate in the Frozen Meatball contest. I just figured it would be better to go out a winner than to miss and lose! As you all know, I don’t golf so it would have been a definite miss! Instead I became the Tequila girl and was driven around by President, Tony George, to visit each group of golfers. I had never ridden in a golf cart to it was a great experience. Unfortunately, Tony had never driven a golf cart so there were some precarious moments! Thanks for the fun Tony!

I have not yet received a report of how much
