Can you believe it's been 9 years since MaryAnn Martin joined our Kiwanis family?!
This photo captures the moment President Christine Curtis-Carr officially welcomed MaryAnn to the club, with her proud sponsor (and husband!) Chief Melvin Martin by her side.
Cheers to 9 years of service, MaryAnn! ๐ฅ Here's to many more! ๐ฅณ
It is with heavy hearts that we remember and honor Tommy Dodson, who passed away last Friday and was laid to rest earlier today. He was a dedicated member of our Kiwanis family, always ready with a smile and an encouraging word.
Beyond his contributions to Kiwanis, Tommy was a loving husband, father, friend, follower of Christ, and much more. He will be remembered for his kindness, love for his family and faith, and service to this country and our city.
Our thoughts and condolences go out to Faye and their family and loved ones during this difficult time.
Though we mourn Tommy's death, we are grateful for his impact on our lives and for the legacy he leaves behind. ... See MoreSee Less
