Last Friday, a large number of members attended the funeral of Rae Fairlie, who had unexpectedly passed away after requiring hospitalization due to a severe illness. Mario, frequently overcome with emotion, provided us with an outline of the life of this remarkable woman who was not just his love and partner in marriage, but also hugely instrumental in the success of his business and an avid fundraiser for charity, including thousands of dollars for The Rotary Foundation's Polio Plus campaign. Our thoughts are with you and your family. May you have the strength to overcome this devastating loss.It is not the image you would see nor the song you would hear,
But rather an image you see though you close your eyes
But rather an image you see though you close your eyes
and a song you hear though you shut your ears.
It is not the sap within the furrowed bark, nor a wing attached to a claw,
But rather a garden for ever in bloom and a flock of angels for ever in flight.
It is not the sap within the furrowed bark, nor a wing attached to a claw,
But rather a garden for ever in bloom and a flock of angels for ever in flight.
