I want to thank Vice President Bob Donato for attending with me the many Presidents meetings and Parade meetings over the past year. I also want to thank him for his courage and honesty. I am so very proud of him. To our Newsletter and Membership Chairwoman and Principal Trustee, Angela Donato, thank you for your tireless efforts in all that you do. The newsletter is fabulous! Your support of me and this lodge is unmatched and I treasure you. I want to thank Luisa Potenza, our Culture Chairwoman and Head Arbitrator, you went above and beyond with the Night of Song and Comedy, it was a huge success. Most of all, I want to thank you for your honesty, integrity, and steadfastness in the face of such trying times. You are the bomb! To Dotty Curto, thank you for chairing the auction and yard sale, you give so much of yourself to this lodge. I appreciate you so much! To Madeline Brewster our Chaplin, thank you for your prayers, and thank you for your humor. You are a HOOT! Thank you also for all your help with the Night of Song and Comedy. Madeline and Carlo Matteucci, thank you for your guidance, support, integrity and friendship. Thank you for standing by and standing up for our lodge, myself and Bob. To the rest of my officers, out-going and incoming, thank you for all of the time and effort it takes to volunteer in the positions you held. It takes a lot to volunteer one’s time and I appreciated your efforts. To the rest of the members, who show up at monthly meetings and contribute in a positive way, you have made the work more enjoyable. We’ve supported other lodges going to their social nights, (we are the dancing queens, and the gentlemen too!), going out to movies and dinner, and for sharing your family stories and traditions, and being part of our culture committee. Thank you one and all!
