Title: Fairfax Knights Of Columbus Served A Very Nice Brunch
Post by: Henry on March 27, 2012, 07:24:19 AM

This past Sunday the Fairfax Knights Of Columbus served a very nice brunch downstairs at St. Lukes - They served orange juice, coffee, sausage, and probably some of the most delicious pancakes I have ever eaten which we could top with real Vermont Maple Syrup.  The brunch was free, but you could leave a donation if you wished.  Had an opportunity to visit with some other parishioners that I usually only get a chance to say "Hi" to.

Very nice gesture Knights!!

If you are a practicing Catholic and 18 years old, I would say you are pretty much in Ed - We have some very dedicated Knights who enjoy helping people.

Ed,

     For non-Catholics, it is the slaying of two dragons and the rescue of at least one damsel in distress. Although dragons can be somewhat difficult to find nowadays, I would think that Carolyn Branagan would certainly qualify as a damsel in distress, simply by what she is up against down there in Montpelier.

Carolyn,

      Keep your eyes open for a "soon to be Knight" riding into Montpelier in a shiny, white, van. He would have riden the shiny, white stallion, but.....

May 20th, A very important day in my life, it was 55 years ago on May 20, 1957 that I started my first day of employment with IBM. I retired from there on July 31, 1992, 20 years ago.  It has indeed been a good life.
