Lambda Sigma President's Message

Dear Lambda Sigma Sisters,
I want to give a warm thanks to the members who participated in the “Celebration of Life” for Patsy Borochoff. From the beautiful table of Remembrance with white and redroses, the commemorative poem and responsive words shared by Francis Courville, Peggy Norman, and members, we paused to reflect on this wonderful member. Three members shared beautiful memories of Patsy: Peggy Norman, Carla Meuth, and Vicky Hemme. The music committee with Vicky Hemme, Evelyn Smith, Judy Farley, Joan Eubanks, and Christi Chrisman sang “Hymn of Promise.”Two committees, Membership and Necrology chaired by Francis Courville and Hospitality chaired by Sue Sowell were highlighted and they shared about what their committee is responsible for. They received a gift from Anita Soffar! On September 19th, we will honor Programs/Projects chaired by Jan Yurasek and Global Awareness chaired by Judy Farley. I would like to see the chairs and committee members at the next meeting. Kudos go out to Ann Thompson on the Proposed Budget explanation and our Treasurer,Mary Crochet, for the Treasurer’s report.
Jan Yurasek (See Committee) discussed our adopted school, EA Jones Elementary and Ann Thompson discussed the AEF award for our members. Kathaleen Eppler reviewed events from the Arlington State Convention and shared Awards we received, Newsletter, Yearbook, Compliance TSO Chapter Website. Kathaleen will donate the $50 registration she won for the McAllen State Convention. Our next meeting is September 19th. Please bring a prospect and receive a 3-charm gift from me. Mary Crochet brought Maria Hinahosa, an art teacher from EA Jones!
Wowee, what a great meeting!

At the September 19, 2019, Lambda Sigma chapter meeting, members will be making fleece blankets for the Fort Bend Rainbow Room. Located in Richmond, the Rainbow Room is an organization that helps abused or negleced children and adults. In addition to tying our fleece blankets and giving them to the children for the winter, the Fort Bend Rainbow Room needs several other items they need. Members are asked to bring a few items to add with the blankets: children's socks, size medium and large;liquid baby wash; lysol spray disinfectant; baby food jars; and cake mix and icing for birthdays. Socializing and tying fleece blankets makes this a fun meeting. Hope to see you there.
