We have a new Vice President General in Robert Doughty of Washington. Yours truly was elected to the NSSAR Nominating Committee from the Council of State Presidents. Our ten members passing on to a new life were honored at the Memorial Service on July eighth. I have saved ten of the programs for disposition by our Chaplin and I will mail them to him to be passed on to the surviving relatives or spouse. The Memorial Service is a very touching and important part of Congress. The most amazing is the number of awards received by compatriots and chapters of our state. I was nearly worn out walking to collect the vast array of awards. This state, for its size, must have been number one in awards per capita. Tony Abbott received the Liberty Medal for recruiting 10 new members. Stan Wills received the Liberty Medal for recruiting 10 new members. John Ernest received two Liberty Oak Leaf Clusters for recruiting 20 new members. Chuck Waid received the Liberty Oak Leaf Cluster for recruiting 10 new members. ½ 1 ¾ James Lindley received the Liberty Oak Leaf Cluster for recruiting 10 new members.
