KNIGHTS SAY "THANK YOU"
On behalf of my fellow Knights, I would like to thank
our Immediate Past Grand Knight Joe Langhauser for his
dedication to our council this past year. Joe's leadership
enabled Breese Council #2869 to once again be recognized
as an outstanding council in Illinois.
On a personal level, I would also like to thank Joe for
his leadership and guidance. Using the knowledge Joe
has shared, I hope I can fill his shoes as a superb Grand Knight for our council.
Thanks again Joe!
