An Evening of Celebration was the theme for the 2013 Noon Franklin Rotary Installation Banquet held at the Old Natchez Country Club. Outgoing President, Lawrence Sullivan, conducted business and honored several members with special recognition for their dedication and service to the Noon Rotary. The late Ed Moody was recognized for his perfect attendance of sixty years, and Victor Andrews, who had family obligations and couldn’t attend in person, was reached by phone to receive the honor of Rotarian of the Year. Pam Stephens represented the McMeen Family in honoring Dr. Joe Willoughby with a $1,000 Paul Harris award in his name. The installation of new officers was conducted by Rotary Assistant District Governor Brian Wilcox with Derby Jones beginning his term, as the club’s new President.
