Volume 56 No. 1 July-August 2015 Our 91st Year

Brothers: 7/2/15

As we start a new fraternal year I am happy to accept this highly

sought after position to be your Grand Knight. As you all may know I

have been very active in the life of St. Ignatius Parish. I have learned a

lot about Church organizations and various ministries but this is

different. I have always thought of myself as a knight and conducted my

tasks accordingly hoping to bring light in what I do and promote

Columbianism.

Over the years while attending the meetings and helping in the

many activities of Our Council I have witnessed the many changes of the

membership and the many Grand Knights that have given of themselves for the Good of the Order. Some were

very charismatic personalities and able to gain the cooperation of the membership and its officers. Others were

of different personalities. They too gave of themselves for the good of the Order and contributed to the whole.

I have seen great strides in the daily operation of this council’s Kenny Club and the turning around of its

financial difficulties and the many improvements to our facility. I could not be thankful enough to those who

gave and continue to give their time, talent and many sacrifices. I am proud to be here and stand with them and

in the coming year.

There are many members in our community of Hicksville who are brother Knights and are involved in our

community of Hicksville. It is my prayer and hope that they too will attend our meetings and help to build up

the active membership of our council for the benefit of all.

The C&B program is underway for 2015-2016. Last year Tom Gill PGK did very well on our C&B

program so well in fact that I have asked him to continue his expertise with the C&B Campaign. In addition,

our up & coming street fair, on the town square in Hicksville, will give us the opportunity to gain new members

for the council and to sell our C&B chances. Please check for dates and times on C&B program events.

In closing, I do not believe for a minute that I would accept this position if it was not for my brother

officers and knights who have given to me the support, encouragement and expertise of their talents practical

savvy & know-how. The values of the gifts and talents given here are invaluable to the lifeblood of all.

Vivat Jesu

Joseph Barry Council Concludes the Columbian Year with Awards Night

On June 16th

the Council held its last major event of the

Columbian Year, the annual Awards Night. The Council

hall was filled with members and award recipients.

We began with awards to the boys and girls who were

winners in our local competitions in the Free Throw

Contest and the Soccer Challenge. Frank Conte, our

Youth Director joined Grand Knight Tom Gill for these

presentations. For the basketball awards Maria Pitonza,

Coordinator for Boys Basketball from the St. Ignatius

CYO joined. The award winners were:

10 years old- Christopher Pitonza

12 years old- Matthew Malerba

13 years old- Stephen Gonzalez

14 years old- Christopher Fiorello

For the Soccer Challenge Awards we were joined by Irene

Carlomusto and Mike Longo from the Hicksville Soccer

Club. These award winners were:

Girls Boys

9 yrs.- Rachel Krogman 11 yrs.- Vincent Manco

10 yrs.- Julia DeTurris 12 yrs.- Doug Zimmerman

11 yrs.- Alexa Fasce 13 yrs.- Luke Hoffman

14 yrs.- Tyler Olivares

Tyler Olivares, the winner in the 14 year old competition,

went on to win the district, county, state and international

competitions. Joe Bonarrigo, from Nassau Chapter, joined

us to make a special award presentation.

Past Grand Knight Gerard Mulholland, chairman of the

Scholarship Committee, then made the presentation of the

scholarships. As is customary we make two awards to

students who attend Catholic high schools and two college

scholarships. This year the high school awards went to

Brian Doyle, who attends Kellenberg High School and to

Grace Cherry who attends St. Dominic’s High School.

The college scholarships were awarded to Melissa Melone

who will attend Syracuse University and to Alexander Steff

who will attend RPI.

Each year the Council presents cash donations to worthy

organizations in the community totaling $3,000. This year

the recipients were:

Hicksville Gregory Museum

Life Center of Long Island

St. Ignatius Church

St. Ignatius Human Services

Holy Family Outreach

Ultrasound Machine- Nassau Chapter

Seminary of the Immaculate Conception

The Council presented the following major annual awards:

The Arthur Schreiber Award for service to the

community was awarded to Mary Ann Lang.

The Anthony Previte Award for exemplifying the

values of the Knights of Columbus was awarded to

Donald Cleary.

The Family of the Year was awarded to Jim and

Joanne Mulligan.

The Knight of the Year was awarded to Harold

Deegan.

At the end of the program, the traditional changing of

leadership took place as incoming Grand Knight Richard

Burg took the gavel from Tom Gill.

Sister Carol Radosti received the award for Holy

Family Outreach.

Think you are too old for coverage? Maybe not

You are never too young or too old to

consider purchasing life insurance. If you have a

financial need for coverage, or will in the future,

a permanent life insurance policy can be just the

thing you need. When you are young and

presumably healthy, coverage will be very

inexpensive when compared to purchasing the

same policies when you are older.

If you’ve put off purchasing coverage, or you

realize that you may need additional insurance,

the Order may still be able to help you, even if

other companies cannot. In fact, in 2012, the

issue age of our permanent life insurance

products was extended to age 80. Naturally,

your health, and whether or not you smoke, will

be taken into consideration, so underwriting

standards for risk and age apply.

This change came in response to a question

I’ve heard before: “My wife and I are almost 80,

do the Knights offer anything to take care of our

final expenses?” And it can also help the

members who thought they were “too old” to

attain our coverage.

This extension of our coverage ages allows

me to help members I couldn’t help before. I look

forward to discussing coverage with you.
