Thank you for allowing us to serve this “Awesome District”!
Much Love from Walter & André

Thank you to each one of you for all your support this Rotary Year. Walter and I could not have done it without you! We did our best to lead by the 4-way test. I hope time will tell that we succeeded.

It has been a long journey, filled with many good, inspiring, and challenging experiences. Yet, we faced them with “true grit.”

The road ahead leads us home to work in our own garden. It will be fun to be among those who have supported us at every turn. Again, thank you!

To my Thomasville Rotary Club of Thomasville, we want to say thank you for having our back, for supporting us at every turn, for calling, the gifts, and the encouragement you gave us along the way. Most appreciated and dear to us was the “Rose Pin” that was given to us at the beginning of our journey. I wear that Rose with pride and will continue to do so.

I shared with you the belief that we needed to be intentional in all that we do, and the best way to engage is with genuine caring and authentic dialogue. Rotary will grow as we allow others to feel comfortable in the spaces Rotary provides.

We can create a new Culture when we embrace the collective traditions and values of those who come to us from every walk of life. They have the skills to grow us beyond the eighteen thousand (18,000) members we lost last year. Continue to "Be The Inspiration as you Create Hope In The World”, and you will embody "The Magic of Rotary."
