PRESIDENT JAN asked us to keep the following in our thoughts and prayers: BOB BROCK; Mary Jo Turley, wife of JIM, who is recovering from surgery to repair a broken knee; and ED PAGE whose brother in Tennessee, B. J. Page, died.
TOM PEARSON, introduced to Rotary by Gus Gustafson and Griff in 1981,
talked about his five careers at Purdue University. As the world and tourism
changed, his opportunities to help food service organizations and hotels in the
U.S. and far corners of the world increased. With this came students from these
places, enriching his life at the same time he was improving theirs. Places with
JOHN SANDERSON introduced Col. Fritz Linsenmeyer and Lt. Col. Gary
Lockard from Grisson Air Force Base. Col. Linsenmeyer explained the segments
of the Air Force that make up the group, talked about funding and personnel,
showed us an aerial photo of the base and gave us some of its history. He
explained the group's strength and experience, what they contribute and talked
about their worldwide involvement. He answered several interesting questions
from members following his prepared presentation.
