The above information was from the history of Rockford Rotary. I will probably pass Agard Bartlett for 2nd place on the all time list but I will not live long enough or be mentally competent to last another 13 years. But I can safely say that some time during the 2020-2021 Rotary Year I will publish the 800th consecutive edition of the COG of my tenure. Never missed an issue despite all of the travels and my wife's patience.
