Tom Donnelly Knight of the Month for July 2022

During the past 40 days, he assisted with the Olympic Village in Searcy on 13 and 14 May. On the following Sunday, he was the presiding officer of a Charity, Unity, and Fraternity Exemplification at St. Mary's Church in Hot Springs; our Council's Team did an outstanding ceremony in an unfamiliar venue. This Knight participated in our Memorial Day activities—flags, Patriotic Rosary, and Mass; and he was a member of an Honor Guard for one of our Sir Knights funerals last month. On flag day he helped set out flags and led a decade of the Patriotic Rosary. He assisted with Junior Golf on Thursdays twice in June.

He recruited two new Knights during the month, bringing our Fraternal Year to the number qualifying the Council for the Supreme Star Award.

He ordered, bought, delivered, arranged for, recruited a crew, and supervised the meal for our June Council Meeting, raising over $900 revenue that compensated for meal-cost losses over the last year—putting Council meals for the year back into the "black."

This Knight continued as the Coordinator for the Parish Perpetual Adoration Program, completing 4 years in this capacity. He also has been our Council's Third Trustee and Program Director throughout the past Fraternal Year.

When a parishioner widow lost her air conditioner during the recent heat wave, he contacted a heat and air outfit, helped her select, buy, and arranged for the installation of the unit, and was there to supervise and assist her.

He took a veteran Sir Knight to North Little Rock for a VA appointment, waited with, and returned him home—a four-hour commitment.

Tom Donnelly is our July Knight of the Month.
