It is with a sad heart that we announce the passing of Dr. Jimmie Tanner a Rotary Club of Liberty member since 1989. Dr Tanner's Obit can be found at Church-Archer online.Memorial services will be held on December 30, 2024 at 10:00 a.m. at 2nd Baptist Church, 300 E. Kansas St., Liberty, MO, with a visitation to follow. Jim was an active member of the club, writing a comprehensive club history, and will be greatly missed.
The club will be honoring Jim this year by adding him as a "Butt Buster BBQ 25" Sponsor. He was a dedicated volunteer every year at the event! The club is starting a "Jim Tanner Fund" with a $500 donation from the club. Club members interested in adding to the fund may make their checks out to "Rotary Club of Liberty MO Foundation" and mail to PO Box 193 Liberty MO 64069 or give to David Evans, RCLMF-Treasurer.

District Grant: Flooring Repairs at Hillcrest Hope Apt:Work days December 26th and 27that the Hillcrest Hope Transitional housing apt are now history. The apartments were organized, cleaned, and the flooring has been delivered. A HUGE thank you to the work crew: Ron Fitch, Jodi Sundaram, Michael Russell, Ken Barry, Dustin Prockish, Justus Norvilas, David & Laura Evans, and other visiting helpers! After the 1st of the year a "floor install" workday will be scheduled. On that workday we will be working in both apartments so we will need teams of 4 for each apartment to be as efficient as possible. Volunteer lists will be coming out soon so keep your calendars open!
