Last Week-
First, a big shout out to Eric Keber for being put on the spot to be our guest Sergeant at Arms. He did a great job. Who will step up next?
Second, thank you Jeff Gilbert for stepping in as song leader during Kirby Upright's absence.
Third, we don't mention this enough but we appreciate our room setup crew and take down crew. You all know who you are.. but just in case you don't - John Dennis, Grant Terrill, Peter Andrews, Dave Fox, Leslie Underhill and our incoming leadership help Ed Schaefer, & Mike Raub. If I missed someone my apologies... we do appreciate you...
A great invocation & reminder about Peace from Dave Fox, followed by a Rotary minute relating to peace by Peter Andrews.
Thank you to last weeks speaker, Tom Yanac, Coroner, from the Monroe County Coroner's Office and his staff. It was an interesting talk and then for Q&A- dead silence lol.
At our evening meeting Stacy Rodriguez taught the members balloon twisting. The group made dogs and wands. We are getting ready to twist at Stroudfest. Afterwards, we had fellowship at Bovino's in East Stroudsburg.
Prayers for Pat Sayler, she spent a few days in the hospital but is now at home recouping.
A goodbye from Maria Candelaria. She has retired and will be moving to North Carolina to be closer to her children.
"To our Rotary members I wish to express my deep gratitude for their friendship. They are all so highly valued and made my transition into our community easy and joyful. Particular greetings to
Frank and Barbara Herting, Ray Starner, Phyllis Gibson, Dave Fox, Dave Yareth, Kirby, Jeff, Richard Mutchler, John Kulba, and dear Grant.
After 48 years as a practicing attorney I'm going fishin !
Hugs to all,
Maria T. Candelaria, Esquire
PS please let my particular friends above know my sentiments.
