Our newlyweds, Dan and Joan Murphy are recognized as our February 2018 Family of the Month. The tremendous success of the Mardi Gras falls in great measure to Dan Murphy and his wife Joan. The Cuba’s and Gremillion’s toted a good share of the load, but Dan’s efforts deserve a stellar well done. Dan has contributed significantly to this Council for years, always ready to pitch in wherever and whenever needed. Danny was a 3-time Council Warden, Guard, does Meals-on-Wheels, perpetual adoration, and so much more.
Joan has been a stalwart of the parish life committee, LOSH, and a key member of Str. Anthony Guild. She helps with Meals-on-Wheels, works with the kids at Mt. Pine, calls Bingo for us and stroke victims—and so much more; like Danny, she’s an invaluable asset to the parish. Both have hearts of gold, full of charity, and are a pleasure to work with on their many endeavors.
Thank you both for your commitment, dedication, and service to all our brothers and sisters. Congratulations.

| Family of the Month February 18 |
Rick and his wife Sandy Darnell moved to the Village in December 2015, from Scottsdale, Arizona. One of the things Sir Knight Rick never had time for during his working career was to join the Knights of Columbus. He was quite pleased to find such a large and active group at Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish.
Sir Knight Rick Darnell began his Knights of Columbus journey on December 6, 2016 followed by 2nd and 3rd Degree exemplification on February 26th, 2017. He became a Sir Knight on June 3rd, 2017. Since joining us both Rick and Sandy have been extremely active, supporting many of our activities and taking the lead in planning and arranging the Honey Baked Ham initiative, the Christmas Wreath initiative, and the Domino Pizza initiatives. Both Rick and Sandy spent several days doing “point of sale” contacts before and after Masses in November and December. We appreciate their efforts, enthusiasm, meticulous attention to detail, and the numerous volunteer hours dedicated to raising funds for our charities. Rick has indicated he will soon assume the Program Director responsibilities for the Council, after a turn-over period with Tony Cifelli who has done an outstanding job for several years. It is a pleasure for the Council to present this Family of the Month certificate to the Darnell’s.

| Bill and Mary Lou George - September 2017 Family of the Month |
Bill participates in the Campaign for People with Intellectual Disabilities, he’s active in the Men’s Club, ushers at the 8:00 AM Sunday Masses, and serves as our Council’s Community Director overseeing 16 venues and most revenue generating events. There are so many Parish Life, Knight, LOSH and other events Bill and Mary Lou participate in, I can’t begin to list them all without omitting some.
Brothers and Sisters, it is a pleasure to recognize the Georges for their long-standing support of our Council, our parish, and to recognize them as an exemplary family of the month for September.
