Honours, Knights Of Columbus Style In East Glendale, Queens

Every year, at the last meeting in June, on the Cusp of a new Columbian Year, Msgr Sherman Council #5103, Knights of Columbus of East Glendale, Queens, has a Ceremonial Party to honour their own:
This year was a party that honoured not only members, but people from the Council's "Metropolitan Area", so to speak;
That Metro Area is East Glendale, Glendale and Forest Hills in Queens;
In the 1st Picture, a University Seminarian, living at the Cathedral College Residence in Douglaston, Queens and from East Glendale's Sacred Heart Parish, as he received a $500 cheque, in which the Council receives back from the Knights of Columbus Supreme Council, 20%, as part of the Supreme Council's "R S V P" or "Refund Support Vocations Program";
In the 2nd Picture, were some of the Winners of The Knights Of Columbus Essay Program. The rather tall Gentleman is Ralph Kleemann, Past Grand Knight and 4th Degree Past Faithful Navigator, who is both Youth Director and Financial Secretary;
In the 3rd Picture, Grand Knight Donald Gander(Past Grand Knight as of July 1st), in the centre, himself a previous Knight of The Year, is pictured with a previous Knight of The Year, Ralph Kleemann and with the newest Knight of The Year, Mr Frank Gander, Don's Brother, in intense service to his Parish Community and Council;
It brought back memories of when I was in my last days as Grand Knight, honouring those people for their mutual support of Council and Community and Don went one better,which I appreciated watching, very much;
There was the party afterwards and, since the Red Sox Game wasn't available, it was a choice of watching the Mets on SNY or the Yankees on My9;
Neither game was worth watching. The NY Mets wisecracks were flowing, like "Stick a fork in them. They're Done";
Mets lost to The Worst Team in Baseball, Seattle, 11-0, while the Yankees lost to the Pirates in Pittsburgh, 12-5, for the 1st Appearance of the NY Yankees in Pittsburgh, since the 1960 World Series;
It was truly a Night To Remember. My Good Friend, the Faithful Navigator of Moylan 4th Degree Assembly, presented Don Gander with a 4th Degree Certificate of Appreciation and Don's Past Grand Knight's Jewel. This PFN also did the same for me in 1998;
It was a great evening;
To Dominic, himself a Past Grand Knight, I wish you well in this endeavor, as the latest Grand Knight in the Sherman Saga;

Mike Leggett-Past Grand Knight

Later, Gators!
