Merry Christmas and a Joyous Holiday Season

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, Although this is hard for most of us while navigating and trying to live through this Wuhan virus, it has the ability to help let the true meaning of the season shine through. Family and friends still need to gather together and celebrate regardless. While you are gathering, remember that Ron Rook Sr and Ron Livers have passed in the past two days. They were both active members in the Federation and in their communities. Ron Rook Sr served the Federation  as an officer for more than 20 years and never had a problem letting you know what he thought. Ron Livers at 5’9″ was a GIANT in the sports community and as a person. They are a loss to their families and the community; rest easy.

Christopher Wilson, President
