PDGovernor Yvette Palmer
It is with a heavy heart that I must share that we have lost Past District Governor Yvette Palmer in her battle with leukemia. PDG Yvette has been the most influential Rotarian in our District in recent memory, acting as a mentor for the last six District Governors as well as The Rotary Foundation expert and Polio Plus champion. She has served as the General Chair of our Multi-district PETS, Rotary Zone 32 Institute Program Chair and the Regional Vice Chair of the Rotary Leadership Institute. Together with PDG Bill Palmer, Yvette is a multiple Paul Harris Fellow, Major Donor, a Rotary Foundation Benefactor and a Bequest Society Member. Yvette has left an indelible mark on Rotary as we in District 7430 are well aware.Yvette and the Palmer family had requested that the progress of Yvette's illness be held at the family level. We have respected their wishes. On behalf of District 7430 we offer our great respect and prayers to the Palmer family.

  • Joseph Centofanti passed on. Our Club Historian
    Joan Toenniessen praised Joe. "He was a true Rotarian. He served
    humanity in so many ways and never looked for notice or accolades.
    He was very welcoming when I joined Rotary in those stressful days of
    opening the door to women. He had a great sense of community, love
    of family, a caring spirit and a silent strength and reassuring smile. I
    cherish the times we shared at Rotary and I feel blessed to have felt like
    we were Rotary buddies. God called a real saint for sure on the eve of
    All Saints Day. Very fitting." Joe Annarelli, a longtime friend of his,
    said a Mass @ St. Denis will be held on Monday Nov. 21st. Check the
    Philadelphia Inquirer for burial arrangements.
