***********
Greetings family and friends,
After 40 years of military service it is FINALLY time for me to trade in my combat boots for flip flops and slippers.
To mark this auspicious occasion, there will be two events to allow me to see and thank you for your support and friendship.
The first will be an informal golfing event on 7 August at the Hylands golf club located near the Ottawa airport. For golfers, there will be tee-times beginning at 1230. For non-golfers there will be social time with drinks and snacks from 1730-1900. This does not exclude the golfers from being social too. LCol (retired) Steve Molaski (wsmolaski@yahoo.ca) is the organizer for the golf Please RSVP to the both of us by 21 July and Steve will provide further details.
The second, more formal event will be held in the afternoon of 30 September in Toronto, most likely at the Armour Heights Officers Mess located at 215 Yonge Boulevard. The organizer is Major (retired) Kamal Sethi (kamalsethi444@gmail.com). Please RSVP to both of us by 25 August and Kamal will provide further details.
I hope to see all of you at one or the other (or both?) events. You have played an important role in my life and I would like to thank you in person (while maintaining appropriate social distancing of course - 2 driver lengths!)
Warm regards,
Kevin (kevinrcotten@gmail.com)
P.S. PLEASE RSVP TO BOTH ME AND THE APPROPRIATE EVENT ORGANIZER!
