July 16th Meeting Recap

I am telling you, a seat at the Las Vegas Media Group luncheon is becoming the hottest ticket in town.  Over the last year or so we have had some amazing speakers come and share their storied lives with us.  What’s even more impressive is the caliber of members that we have that attend each month.  I am so proud and humbled to be able to spend time with all of you.  With the help of member suggestions, we have a great lineup of future speakers.  But, let’s talk about today.

We had 48 people come to hear Frank Fiedler, former host of the radio show, “Let’s Talk Las Vegas” share some of his stories and the people he was privileged to interview during his 12 years on the air.  We also had several new faces in the crowd and we hope to see them back again.

Our sound system was wonderful today, thanks to Ed Dodrill for sharing his equipment with us.

We spent some time talking about our dear friends that have recently passed, as well as sent some thoughts out to those that are presently ailing.  Several members shared stories about Ralph Denton, Ron Bell, and Fred Davis, members who we have just lost.  Our thoughts went out to Nelson Sardelli who lost his wife, Micki, after a long illness.  To the family members who have lost loved ones, please know you are in our thoughts and prayers.

We have lots of July Birthdays!  Happy Birthday to:

• Roger Buehrer
• Chuck Evans
• John Foley
• Cork Proctor
• John "Buzzy" Ullom
• Sam Upton

• and A.D. Hopkins!

We haven’t set anyone up to speak at the August meeting as of yet, and if we don’t have anyone it will be a great time for all of us to chat and catch up.  As usual, I will send an email reminder out to let you know what to expect.

If you know of anyone who is not getting my emails and would like to (or if they’ve changed their email addresses and forgot to tell me), please feel free to have them send me an email so I can add them to the list.  Send an email to lasvegasmediagroup@gmail.com

See you all next month.
