Jack Cunningham ‘12 Sean Barth ‘13 Years ago, during a visit to New York City, I saw a T-shirt that Pat Reed-Reimer ‘12 Tim Tolbert ‘14 said, “He who dies with the most wins.” It seemed funny at the Chris Stubbs ‘12 Paul Osborne ‘14 time, but we all read the stories of people who judge their Susan Jenik ’13 Walter Price ‘14 success by their wealth. The problem is that material Anna Litton ’13 Krysty Carr ‘14 possessions often do not bring happiness, for there is always someone who has more. Committee Chairs Club Administration Paul Osborne Most of us, however, want our life to be measured by what we Membership David Johnson have done. Many Rotarians have expressed their appreciation New Generations Steve Dellasala of fellow Rotarians’ service by promising a contribution to our Public Relations Jeanne Gold Rotary Foundation that will live on after them. The earnings Rotary Foundation Bill Litton from their gifts go to our Annual Programs Fund year after Service Projects Susan Jenik year. What better legacy to the world? Sergeant-at-Arms Walter Price Club Programs Sean Barth By earlier this year, we had almost 8,000 commitments to the Bequest Society.

Mitchell (1948-49), UPCOMING CLUB PROGRAMS foretold the creation of the Permanent Fund in 1992, in a speech that ended with this story from the Talmud: Choni Hama’agel saw an old man planting a carob tree and asked Oct 3 Club Assembly – Membership & TRF when he thought the tree would bear fruit. “After 70 years” was Oct 10 Marci Carter – Meals on Wheels the reply. “What!” said Choni. “Do you expect to live 70 years Oct 17 Bill Litton – History of Boy Scouts/Rotary and eat the fruit of your labor?” “I did not find the world Oct 24 Bob Levy – Wekiva Promise desolate when I entered it,” said the old man. “And as my fathers planted for me before I was born, so I plant for those UPCOMING CLUB EVENTS who will come after me.” We each have that same opportunity by making a bequest to Nov 6 RC Sanford’s Salute to Freedom Bike our Rotary Foundation.
