Happy Dollars:  Bud Luthman was happy that John Frank, probably the oldest member of the club, still attends Rotary meetings. He appreciates John's commitment.                                                  Charles's mother in law had emergency surgery and is doing much better.  He has been in the financial world since 1986.                                                            Jim Taylor is sad that the New Jersey School of Conservation is closing.  He attended a program on dragonflies that was surprisingly  interesting.     Barbara Miller is happy that her grandson Dillon's grand opening of Delectable Delights was very busy.  She was glad to have volunteered several hours baking and doing dishes.                                                   Bud forgot his hearing aides, but was quite thankful that everyone spoke so loudly that he could hear.          John Hough had a medical episode, but he didn't have a problem.  He will be getting a stent.
