 Tom Sommerville-GK message-May-June 2022 I hope that you and your families are doing well and staying healthy. It is hard for me to believe that this is my final article as grand Knight for the Knight Light. The past year has gone by in the blink of an eye. There are so many people i would like to thank for making this such a wonderful year. I have to start by thanking my wife, Gloria for both her patience and encouragement this past year... Thanks also to my Deputy, Matt Antonucci, my greatest asset. If it wasn't for Matt, you might never have seen an email message from your Grand Knight. My Chancellor, Gary Rodetis has kept our calendar full and has provided great committees, as well as Chairman for all of our events. I could not have done without my Warden and Guards for upholding the door. Thanks to Mike and Matteo for the minutes nd for sending them out to all our Brother Knights. Thank you Mary Ann Cabri and the Columbiettes for always showing support for our council. The year could not be successful and complete without YOU, the members. Thank you for all of your friendship and support. Looking ahead, we have the Nomination of Officers for the coming for the new Columbian year (elections 6-2-22).
