PILOT CLUB OF OAK RIDGE Tennessee District

Issue 5 November 2018

Pilot Friends,

I hope this finds each of you enjoying the beginning of this wonderful Holiday Season. Maybe you have had enough turkey and ham to last for a few weeks! Please keep all of your friends and family in your thoughts and prayers during this blessed season. Many are facing loss, change and health issues. We all need each other.

Again, thanks to everyone for your hard work associated with our successful Arts and Craft Fair. It couldn’t have been accomplished without you. It was great to spend time with each other and discuss not only Pilot with each other.

Welcome to Kasi Ross and Betty Bowers as new members in our Club! We will hold the initiation ceremony for them at our December meeting. Welcome Kasi and Betty!!

Just a couple of reminders for the upcoming weeks: 1. We plan to participate in the Belk Charity Event on December 1st. Please

contact Angie for further information. 2. Our December meeting will be held on December 10th at 6:00 at Sherry Bath’s

home. Those that would like to participate in our gift exchange/steal should bring a WRAPPED gift not to exceed $10. We plan to have chili and the fixings for dinner. You should bring all your wrapped gifts for our angel family to Sherry’s that evening.

3. We will be holding our Ridgeview Christmas Event on Saturday, December 15th from 9-1 at the Adams Lane location. We will discuss the menu at our meeting.

Please enjoy this busy and sometimes stressful next few weeks by remembering the true meaning of Christmas. Take time for yourselves as well as others.

In Pilot Love and Friendship, Debby

Pilot PalBetsy Tunstall

I was born in Sparta, TN. I lived with my mother, father and brother in Donelson, TN; Spartanburg, SC; McMinnville, TN; and Nashville, TN.

I graduated from George Peabody College for Teachers and moved to Oak Ridge to teach school. I taught two years, married, and became a full time homemaker and mother. I have lived in the same house for fifty years.

My son, Brian, lives in Powell, TN, with his wife Robin. They have two daughters, twenty three year old Bethany and nineteen year old Madison, who have each established their own homes.

My daughter, Rachel Berry, lives in Bayport, MN, with her husband Jon. They have three children: Kenan, nine years old; Nora, seven years old; and Ingrid, five years old.

I worked at The Eye Center for twenty years and have been retired nine years.

I am proud to be a Pilot and have enjoyed twenty-four years of friendship and service. I look forward to many more years as a Pilot.

Imagined & Created By Pilot International

International Care & Kindness Week, November 4-10, 2018, is a week-long public awareness campaign meant to bring awareness to how simple acts can change a day, a life or the world by simply showing someone you care.

Celebrated on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving, November 27, 2018, (in the U.S.) and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday kicks off the charitable season, when many focus on their holiday and end-of-year giving. Since its inaugural year in 2012, #GivingTuesday has become a movement that celebrates and supports giving and philanthropy with events throughout the year and a growing catalog of resources.
