    Dave & Family
    Maria was such a big part of Autumn Indulgence year after year. She did so much for Rotary to make the event a success. Her “can do” attitude will always be missed. She never said no or failed to finish something with a smile and a professional result. Working on Autumn Indulgence will not be the same with out her!
