2014 Golf Sponsored Scholarship Winners
It gives me great pleasure to announce thewinners of our 2014 Golf sponsored scholarship essay contest.
Joseph Fragale, Shannon Eagan, Rebecca Tallman and Danielle Kubicsko
We received a total of 18 entries. I am very glad I was not a judge, I am sure that it was a very difficult
decision for the judges, who had to only pick four out of all the excellent entries. I would like to thank Ed
Forsyth, Guy O’Brien and Ed Nelson along with our Golf Outing Committee, Vincent Granice, Pat Dillon
and Ed Brace.
Thank you to all who submitted essays,

Grand Knight’s Message
God Bless Our Troops
Brother Knights,
I’m happy to report that our F.A.C. Bingo held on October 11 was a success again this year. We had 166 players
thanks to participation from Chapter, Columbiettes from Suffolk Chapter & local Councils and St. Regis Columbiettes.
As result, I will be presenting the F.A.C. with a check for $1500 at the November Chapter meeting. Thanks to all the
regular Bingo Volunteers for all you did to make the evening a success.
On Sunday, October 12, I was pleased to witness the Exemplification of the Fourth Degree as six members of St.
Regis took the degree. We congratulate Sir Knights Mark Arthus, Eugene Hillis, Nick Morreale, Vinny Safina, Rich
Santiago, and Jack Smith and welcome you to the Patriotic Degree. Once again, the consensus is that Shea
Assembly had the best hospitality room, due in no small part to the efforts of Tom Fawcett, PGK, Tom Jr., Danny
Purcell, and Larry McCourt who, as part of the Shea team put in long hours under difficult conditions to assure the
comfort and enjoyment of all.
We have a fairly busy schedule as the holidays approach. On November 1, Christine Tallman is bringing back the
annual Craft Fair from 9am to 5pm. This is a good chance to do some Christmas and holiday shopping while
supporting the activities that keep our Council viable. If you can lend a hand, I’m sure Christine can find something
for you to do.
As we get closer and closer to St. Patrick’s Day, the reality of the expense of the parade becomes more evident.
This month Paula Martire and Debbie Woods are presenting the third annual 50’s dance on Saturday, November
15. All proceeds go to the Parade Committee. For details, see the ad in this issue. Jim Tallman is raffling off 500
gallons of home heating oil and 200 Gallons of unleaded gas or the cash equivalent for $25 a ticket. The drawing
will be on November 7, so there is not a lot of time. Don’t miss out. Tickets can be purchased at the bar or from
Jim.
Our Creche Lighting Ceremony will be on Tuesday, December 2, and to encourage more participation, we are
planning another pot luck dinner. So, bring a covered dish and your family and friends and make this a celebration
of the Nativity to be proud of.
Due to the number of Fourth Degree members and officers who have expressed a desire to attend the Fourth
Degree Christmas party scheduled for December 17, the night of our social meeting and First Degree, I am
considering rescheduling our meeting to allow all to attend both. The assembly does not have a regular meeting
place and depends on the Councils of the Assembly for their functions.
As we enter the Holiday Season, Terry and I wish all of you and your families a Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving
and ask you to remember all those less fortunate. One way to do this is through our through our ongoing food
drive. Donations can be left in the lobby of the Council.
Fraternally yours,
Please don’t forget Our Memorial Mass
at the Council on November 19th at 8:00pm.

Election Day, Tuesday, November 4, 2014
Voter Check List - If you are a registered voter in N.Y.S. be ready to cast a ballot for:
___________ a House of Representatives Member to represent your area
___________ N.Y.S. Governor, Lt. Governor, Comptroller, and Attorney General
___________ a N.Y.S. Senator to represent your area
___________ a N.Y.S. Assembly Member to represent your area
___________ a Comptroller for Suffolk County
___________ Town Council, Village Trustees and Receiver of Taxes (Contests on ballot vary by town.)
___________ County, Family, District, and Town Court Judges
The Stakes in 2014:
A gain of 6 US Senate seats gives control to the GOP. (1/3 of the Senate) will be elected to 6 year terms. (NY’s Sen.
Schumer was elected in 2010 and Sen. Gillibrand in 2014). Current Senate stops pro-life bills. The Senate must also
confirm the President’s Supreme Court nominees with 50 votes, but 60 are needed to end a possible filibuster. In the US
House of Representatives, GOP wouldn’t lose control unless it lost 17 seats. House Members serve two year terms.
The battle for control of the NY State Senate is fully underway.
32 seats are needed to form a majority in the 63-member Senate chamber. Long Island’s nine Senate races could determine which
party takes control. The NY State Senate is key to stopping the expansion of “abortion rights”, which lost by a single Senate vote in
2014. In NYS, we need more Pro-Life members of the Assembly from Nassau/Suffolk, although control of that body is thought likely
to remain with the Democrats.
Research the stand of each candidate to appear on your ballot and vote Nov 4.

So why is it so important that you meet with me:
1. I will review your existing life insurance coverage. Let's make sure there is no expiration date or future cost increase. Check to see that your
beneficiaries are current. Ensure that the coverage you have is going to do what you intend it to do.
2. Review your investment and retirement accounts. Often, these statements can be confusing. As your trained professional, I can clarify what you have
and ensure you have an understanding of what it may or may not do. How will these accounts be impacted when one spouse pre-deceases?
3. Review your strategy to fund long term care cost. What does it cost for In-Home care, In-Patient care? How do I cover those costs?
4. Review what would happen if your income stopped due to injury. How would you pay your bills, keep your house, feed your family?
5. Review your strategy to fund final expenses and burial. Do you know what a funeral cost today?
6. Review your strategy to provide income you cannot outlive.
My goal is to help you understand what you own...Please use me as a valuable resource. Best news of all, my professional service to you is free. I have
been thoroughly trained and have unlimited resources to ensure the most up-to-date information available. Don't waste this opportunity.
My wife Sara and I would like to wish you all a very peaceful and Blessed Thanksgiving. I am truly thankful to be your Knights of Columbus agent and
given this opportunity to help Catholic families achieve peace of mind.
May God Bless you and hold you in his arms each day. May He bring Peace and Happiness to your household and all your family.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
May God Bless you and your family and keep them safe.

Message from the President
My fellow Columbiettes,
Weren’t the colors on the trees just beautiful? God must have a very talented painter on staff.
My deepest aplogies to Agnes Ludwigson who does not have ovarian cancer as reported in last
month's Knight Life.
We welcomed in 2 new Columbiettes at our October meeting – Lisa Sevinell and Lucielle Meisner.
Our degree team did a wonderful job as always despite new roles for some people and new volunteers
in others. This good job was due mainly to the leadership of our Ceremonial chairperson Colleen
Wyman. We also had two very special dignitaries in attendance – Doreen DeBlasio, State Chairman
of District Deputies and Amelia Joseph, Suffolk Chapter President. They were equally impressed
by the degree team and Amelia even stayed for our meeting.
Congratulations to our Columbiettes who received their Major Degree at Patchogue Council on
October 28.
On October 5, Past President Ann Festa, VP Pat Blinn and I attended the Memorial Mass at the
Shrine of our Lady of the Island in Eastport. We honored the following Columbiettes who had
passed away from Oct 2013 to Sept 2014 – Grace Eterno, Agnes Lane, Claire McQuillen and Mary
Tallman. It was a beautiful day to visit the shrine and the ceremony was very moving.
Our Knight at the Races was very successful thanks to our Chairlady Terry Powers, her husband
Grand Knight Bob Powers, Matt & Laura Balkam. Also a big thanks to Deputy Grand Knight Danny
Purcell who tended bar, Vinnie Lettieri our Emcee for the night, the Squirettes and all those who
manned the betting tables and the horses.
Check the calendar for the November events and looking ahead into December we have the lighting
of the Creche on Dec 2, We will be serving food and hot drinks. Christmas is a very special time
of year and the lighting of the crèche gives us the chance to take time away from all the hustle and
bustle of the holiday to remember just what is the reason for the season. Please make time on your
calendar for this.
Also there is the play “It’s a Wonderful Life” at the Smithtown Center for Performing Arts on Dec 21.
See flyer in the Knight Life for further information.
I would like to wish everyone a Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving.
Fraternally yours,
Mary Anne Hartnett
Madam President
