Dear Fellow Rotarians,

This past week we lost another incredible Rotarian, Larry Bledsoe.  Larry passed away Friday, October 15th after an extended illness and will be greatly missed by all of us.

Most of you have known Larry for a long time.  He served as our Club 29 President in 2002-2003, a Paul Harris Fellow, board member, secretary, Sgt. at Arms and was on many Rotary Club 29 committees over the years.  He was a dedicated Rotarian, husband, father, grandfather, and friend to all of us with a great since of humor that always kept us smiling.

I first met Larry in 1978 when my wife and I moved to Oklahoma City and called on Larry for business at his advertising agency when I was a radio and later a television sales account executive.  Our friendship was immediate and fun loving as many of your friendships were with Larry when they first began. 

Nomination Committee Seeking Candidates

The Nomination committee has begun its work to select candidates to appear on the ballot in November for officers and directors for the 2022-23 Rotary year when Wes Milbourn will be President. The committee is carefully considering a pool of potential candidates who have been engaged club members and demonstrated an interest in leadership in the club. However, to ensure that we are making our selection from the deepest pool of qualified candidates, we would welcome anyone interested in serving to reach out. 

If you are interested in being considered for a position on the ballot, please let Megan Law know by email no later than 5:00 pm on October 22. To be eligible, a club member must have been a member of Club 29 for at least three years at the time of the vote in November. 

Sincerely,  
Jim Sharrock - Chair
Nomination Committee
