As we prepare for our 2026 Joint District Conference, we will once again take time to honor and remember the remarkable Rotarians that we have lost this past year—individuals who truly lived Service Above Self and left a lasting impact on their clubs, communities, and our district.

To ensure that every Rotarian is recognized with the dignity and respect that they deserve, we are asking each club to submit the names and information of any members who have passed away between May 2025 and today.

Please include the following for each submission:

  • Full name of the Rotarian
  • Club affiliation
  • Date of passing
  • A high-quality photo
  • A brief bio (2–4 sentences highlighting their service, leadership, and impact)

This tribute will be presented during a special Memorial Service at the District Conference on Martha’s Vineyard (May 15–17, 2026)—a meaningful moment of reflection as we come together to celebrate lives dedicated to making a difference.

This is more than a formality—it is our opportunity to tell their stories, to honor their legacy, and to ensure they are remembered as part of our shared Rotary journey.

Submission Deadline: May 10, 2026 
Please send all materials to: DG Johnny Ahern at rotaryjohnny@gmail.com 

Let us come together as a district to pay tribute to those who helped shape who we are today.
