President Linda Fife and Elaine Wetzel presented the award, and Elaine did a wonderful job of listing Caryl’s many accomplishments as a DD sister!

Foundation scholarship provider, president for 7 years, chair of convention when it was held in Athens, organized DD’s involvement with the playground and initially with the PBJ projects, membership on so many committees and so much more!!

Our June meeting was definitely a good one!

It’s always fun to receive a reminder of how much we mean to each other!

The hostesses for this meeting, Laurie Campitelli and Elaine Wetzel, are not only DD sisters, but actual sisters, as well. They did not purposely color coordinate their outfits, but they sure were sharing the same vibe today!

Caryl Kiser received a wonderful award which deserves its own post, so look for that because it’s special!

Finally, our convention delegate, Lori Sauer, gave a great recap of her experience!

Happy summer, DD!

Ann Grover joined Chapter DD in 1964. That means she became one of our Golden Girls in 2014 when she hit 50 years of membership! She passed away on April 19, 2026, and saying goodbye to a sister is always hard. She was vibrant, a wonderful hostess, and the epitome of what it means to be a P.E.O. Rest in peace, dear Ann. You’ll be missed.
