Weathering This Season

We are grieved to share that President Liz McKown's father passed away this past weekend. Please keep her and her family in your prayers.
 
Our club has been weathered by an extraordinary season of grief as we mourn the passing of a cherished member, a beloved spouse, and two fathers. In times of profound loss, the true strength of a community is found not in the absence of sorrow, but in the way we carry it together. While the weight of these losses is heavy, the spirit of service that unites us also provides a unique foundation for healing. By leaning into one another and offering the same compassion to our fellow members that we so freely give to our community, we honor the legacies of those we have lost. Let us move forward with patience for ourselves and a renewed commitment to being each other’s greatest source of support.
