FROM YOUR GRAND KNIGHT:
It is with a sad and heavy heart that I bring news that Sir Knight Walter “Walt†Myers has died and joined the heavenly Council with his Brothers and our Dear Lord who has passed before him. PGK John McConville announced to me this evening that Brother Walt died this morning after a lengthy and difficult illness. John was in contact with his wife Roseanne who is not in the best of health herself. Walt will truly be missed in the Keough Council 5263 and the Admiral Benson Assembly 381. For two consecutive years until today Walt served as Chancellor and Vocations Chairman for Keough Council. Walt supported the council in so many ways. Even during his illness he had the State Council car raffle donation delivered to the Council during one of our meetings. Remember, it was Walt who collected donations for our Casino Nights. How many of us could go door to door asking for donations while connected to an oxygen tank? Asking for donations for the sake of the Knight of Columbus fund raining efforts. How may times have you seen Walt show up to our Council meetings badly bruised and could hardly walk, just to read the names of our sick and distress without even uttering his own name? Walt was truly a remarkable example for all Knights to follow and to emulate. Our condolences go out to his wife Roseanne, his daughter and the rest of the family.
