I was praying I would not have to write this one. I am so sad to report that our brother and ECV 58 Vigilante, Eugene Endfinger, has lost his battle with Covid. You were a good brother, as well as a great friend. I still have the Moonshine you brought me for my birthday. I will raise a glass in your honor. Rest easy in the Golden Hills, until we meet again.

Congratulations to our new Chapter 58 Officers!

Bruce Hinkley- NGH
LJ DeMauri- VNGH
Randy Jenks- Head Vigilante

Congratulations guys!
