I had the pleasure of spending last evening with my brothers in the John Manire Chapter SAR in Hopkinsville, Kentucky.  I served as the state President of the Kentucky Sons of the American Revolution in 2018-19, and still serve as the state’s Chaplain.  So, on occasion, I am invited to other chapters for special events.

Last night was one such event.  I swore in their new slate of 2019-20 officers, including my good buddy John G. West (pictured below) as chapter President.

I have to confess that I am jealous of John’s gavel!  Surely, he will get lots of things accomplished by carrying such a “big stick.”

I was also blessed to finish off the evening with a presentation of “Betsy Johnson: Girl Patriot of Bryan Station, Kentucky.”  I even sold a few books!

It was a great night, indeed.
