Another of our giants has gone on to his final reward. Mr. Ernie Preuitt, RPT passed away peacefully at his home several days ago after turning 100 this past January. Ernie will be laid to rest today and I know that his family appreciates is keeping them in our thoughts and prayers.

As President John F. Kennedy said, "A nation reveals itself not only by the men it produces but also by the men it honors, the men it remembers." - Let us all remember such members as Ernie Preuitt for what they gave to our organization, what they stood for and how they gave us a fine example of who we can be.

I too was able to learn a lot from Ernie before I left Kansas City for Hawaii. He will be missed.

Ernie was an unmistakable presence in the PTG. I feel extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to cross paths with him in Kansas City, MO. Keith McGavern
