Near the end of June Noble Warren Stewart Jr, suffered a heart attack. The last update on him is he's now at Bellingham Health Care Center Room 17.  After our annual Hamburger Feed we ended up with over $1800.00 for the wheelchair for Alex.  Thank you all for your donations and help in getting the funds we needed.  Hope to see you all on Tuesday September 4th.

Nile Shrine

Notice the guy at the lower right of the photo.  He is Gene Gilbert, Assistant Rabban of Nile Shrine, our immediate past Venerable Master.

 

Gene’s year as Potentate is getting closer and closer so I’m sure he has started planning his year.  If Gene asks you to take part in his year by taking on a project or position I hope you will say, “yes,” and support him in this huge commitment.

 

Gene has to abandon his commitments to the Valley for a while as his Shrine duties take more of his time.

 

By the way,  In the photo from left to right

 

Front: Richard M. Kovak, Chief Rabban; Richard “Dick” Sardeson, Potentate; and Eugene “Gene” Gilbert, Assistant Rabban.

 

In the back row: Merle Claflin, Treasurer; Saturo “Sat” Tashiro, High Priest and Profet; Dave “Dave” Ramish, Oriental Guide; and  James “Jim” Hart, Jr., Recorder.

 

Its nice to have one of our own giving his time and considerable skills to Nile Shrine organization.  We wish Gene well and want him to know we miss his smiling face at our meetings.  Come join us when your schedule allows Gene.
