Jerry has for some time donated $1.00 for each year his father has lived. In case you were not aware, father Gib celebrated his 102nd anniversary of his birth THIS YEAR.  Although not shuffling this year, I understand he does show up to support Jerry!!  Thanks Gib for honoring us with your presence this year. At its weekly SWCD tournament held at the Bradenton club today, club members ‘sang’ happy birthday to ‘Gib’ Stannard to celebrate his 102nd birthday. Gib spent the morning watching his son Jerry play.  At noon he went home to take a Nap and then came back in the afternoon to watch Jerry’s next match!  Two weeks ago at the SWCD ‘pins’ presentation for last seasons  top ladies and men players, President Ron Nurnberger presented Gib with a special award named for him: “SWCD fan of the year!”  Sent along by SWCD President Ron Nurnberger with THANKS.
