Rotary

Heaven gained an angel from our Woodinville Rotary Family this week: Sadly, Steve Dolan has lost his battle to cancer.

A WRC member since 1995, Steve served as President, Treasurer, Annual Auction Chair, Scholarship Chair, International Service Chair and an important part of the Membership Committee. He also served on the Scholarship Foundation of Northshore Board as Treasurer.

Steve had a way of living life that inspired and touched many with his authentic and pure love for family, friends and community service, not to mention “Having Fun is Serious Business!”

We feel a big void in our Woodinville Rotary Family here on earth, but we know that Steve would want us to carry on his Legacy of Service: to make a difference, think big, love freely and live as Peace Makers.

Steve, until we meet again, we will do our best to follow your lead.

Please join the Dolan family for Steve’s Celebration of Life at 11am on Saturday, April 7th at the Gold Creek Community Church 4326 148th St SE Mill Creek, WA.

On the speaking agenda today: Pamela Van Swearingten and Mindy Watson of Washington Preparatory School, a new private school in Bothell, now accepting applications for the 2018-2019 school year.

District Governor Alex Hopkins unveiled the Rotary Club of Grace banner, that will be displayed at the upcoming Rotary District 5030 Conference on April 27-29th at the Tulalip Resort. All are encouraged to attend!

We welcomed WRC Past President and dear Rotary friends, Al and Janet Haines. The Haines are living in Utah and are members of the Rotary Club of Dixie Sunrise. It was nice seeing them back in Woodinville!

A standing ovation was in order for Nancy Balin, for a well organized and fun Family Jewels 5K this past weekend. Bravo!

Join us Tuesday morning, 7am at the Sammamish Grange.
