As the soap opera states like sands of the hour glass so goes the days of our lives
That is what happens to my time. I need to manage my time better.
Two weeks ago we heard about the Arizona Land and Water Trust. Water enables us to have a better quality of life. We need to protect our legacy of land, water and air.click here for more information http://alwt.org
This week our President Maeve Johnson shared that she is ready to pass the baton to Kathleen Debiak.
We are looking forward to our dinner on June 14th at Lil’ Abner’s. Kathleen will be installed as our new President. As co-chairman of the dinner I promise some fun surprises.
Our speakers this week were from the Marana Mortuary.
They gave us some insights on “green funerals”. We are one of two cities in Arizona that have this distinction.
The cemetery has a quarter of an acre set aside for these funerals. The casket though not attractive is biodegradable. The body is not embalmed with chemicals. Therefore it makes it very inexpensive.
They told us that somewhere in your important papers you should express your wishes as to how you wish to be buried. The decisions are hard enough without having a direction. Click here for more information http://maranamortuarycemetery.com
Two weeks ago a number of Rotarians attended the MCATS graduation. We were delighted with the success stories. We heard how many of their families and friends supported them in this endeavor.
The following night we went to Suelee Edwards home for a farewell party for Pedro Acosta. We are very fortunate to have such loving and giving host families.
