SONGS
Bob Lytle led us in two songs; "When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again" and "Wait Till The Sun Shines Nellie"
 
SHERIFF
Sheriff, Mayor and Congressman Want To Be, Bryan Barnett, brought the house down with fines totaling $228 and many more laughs. Constable B questioned if the language in our songs was politically correct today and cost Bob Lytle a bundle. Next was Ernie Schaefer $3 because. Since the Tigers season ended early, it cost you $1 if you played or watched golf, basketball or just relaxed. 
Next our Club's "Finest" fined Tate Vo for missing the life id good award as she missed medical school and had to settle for dentistry. Honoring our speaker, Dr. Kazziha, the great Cardiologist, you were fined $3 if you ever stole someone's heart or broke someone's heart. Wayne Hodges, Mark Tisdale, Jerry Carvey and Bob Lytle were all fined for singing their hearts out. Jim Smalley and Phil Lowman got it for doing something that rhymed with heart. Super sleuth then informed all that John Modetz was the lucky man alive as the appropriate gift for 35 years of marriage was not diamonds or gold but, caskets.
 
SPEAKER
President Nominee Rodney Hulbert introduced Dr. Samer Kazziha, lead Cardiologist at the Shelton Heart Center of Crittenton Hospital. Dr Kazzihi spoke of the dramatic improvements in surgical success and recovery success using a cardiac surgical procedure developed by his team at Crittenton whereby entry to the body is through the wrist instead of the groin. Dr. Kazziha brought along a patient Chuck Woolaver whose testimonial was quite moving. 

Chuck is an example of how modern medicine can save lives.  Diagnosed with coronary artery disease in February of 2015, Chuck went through 6 procedures to clear the blockage in his legs, near his kidney, and most importantly, the LAD artery of the heart (the widow maker).  It was 95% blocked.

It has become Chuck’s mission to give back to people who may be taking the same path towards heart disease.  He has dedicated his time and resources to helping create a movement towards living a heart healthy lifestyle.  After all, Chuck’s new motto is, “It Starts With The Heart”!

Chuck has a Bachelor of Arts degree from Olivet College and has over 30 year of leadership experience in business.  He has hired and developed over 100 employees with the main goal of helping them reach their personal and professional goals.

With Chuck at the helm and dedicating 100% of his time to Walk for The Beat, we believe this movement will grow into something special.  On October 1st, 2017, Chuck will begin his walk across America to draw further attention to the causes of cardiovascular disease and how it can be prevented.  This accomplishment will be significant because it wasn’t long ago that the arterial blockage in Chuck’s legs prevented him to walk more than 100 yards at a time. For more information please go to http://www.walkforthebeat.org.
