It is with a heavy heart that we report the passing of long time fellow Rotarian Donald "Don" A. Littlefield. Don was born on September 7, 1932 and was inducted into the Taunton Rotary Club on April 6, 1961. Don and his wife Lydia and four daughters resided in Raynham for many years before retiring to Block Island. Don's wife Lydia said that he was very proud to have perfect attendance at Rotary for over 30 years. There being no Rotary Club on Block Island Don would travel off Island weekly to attend Rotary meetings on the mainland, Don was an exemplar Rotarian to say the least. Our heartfelt prayers and sympathy go out to Don's wife Lydia and the entire Littlefield family.
Please note: We return to in person meetings this week at Stoneforge.

Happy/Sad Bucks
Ed had a happy buck for Claire undergoing immunotherapy and so far having no major side effects.
Bob had a Happy/Sad buck. He shared that his wife, who has been waiting for a liver transplant for some time, had an appointment last week that showed the development of cancer in her liver. On the positive side, it moves her up the list for a transplant and she has a positive outlook for current treatment as well as the transplant. Bob also added a happy buck for Bristol having recently hosted their first playoff basketball game, which they won, to move on to the final four of the region.
Dan had a happy buck for the Providence College Friars basketball win over Xavier.
