Special Message from President John Mainella
By now, you have likely heard on the local and national news outlets that our beloved Rotarian and Senator Richard Lugar passed away Saturday evening after a short battle with the same syndrome that took his brother Tom. He was surrounded by his loving wife of 63 years Charlene, four sons, and many other members of his family.
We honored the Senator as Rotarian of the Century during our clubs centennial celebration and we recently joined with Gleaners to celebrate his work to eliminate hunger in the United States and across the world, as well as his efforts to promote global peace. Many of us had the privilege and honor of hearing Dick and Tom share their brotherly love and their family’s story at a Tuesday meeting several years ago. I was fortunate to receive several notes from him during this year as president and will cherish knowing and working with him for the rest of my life.
To say that our club lost another giant is an understatement. The entire world lost one of history’s greatest statesmen, advocates for peace, and incredible human being.
There will certainly be many services and memorials, including something from our own club. We will keep you apprised on arrangements as details become more clear. In the meantime, if you would like to send a note of condolence to the family, you can do so at The Lugar Center, 1455 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Suite 1125, Washington, D.C. 20004.
Please continue to keep the entire Lugar Family in your thoughts.
With all best wishes,
John Mainella
President, Rotary Club of Indianapolis
