from Left, Jim McFarlin, Membership Chair, Jack Merrill
We are delighted to welcome Jack Merrill, our newest member, to the Meredith Rotary Club. Jack's unwavering commitment to community service and his fervent desire to make a difference are truly inspiring.
Jack graduated from UMass Amherst in 1984 and Northeastern University School of Law in 1993. He has been a practicing attorney since then, and though he now lives in New Hampton, he maintains a rigorous long-distance legal practice in Newton, MA.
Jack's family is an integral part of his life. He has been married to Ellen Fanning since 1993 and has two adult children: Max (30), who will graduate from St. John's Law School this spring, and Sam (24), a social worker in Salem, Mass.
Among his volunteer activities over the years are membership in the Framingham Rotary Club and a Harris Fellow, where he served as president from 2000-01 and was significantly involved for 15 years. Jack has also been president of the local basketball league in his former hometown of Southborough, MA, and president of Metrowest Legal Services, which assists needy families and elders.
We eagerly anticipate Jack's significant contributions to our initiatives and projects. His accomplished background in legal professional services and his dedication as a Rotarian will undoubtedly bring fresh insights and value to our club as we continue to serve Meredith and the surrounding areas.
