Welcome Newest Rotarian Dr. Jeff Gold
Dr. Jeff Gold receiving his Rotary membership certificate from President Christina Usher
 
Last week, President Christina Usher presented Dr. Jeff Gold with the Rotary honorary membership. He was also our program speaker. Below is Dr. Gold's letter.
 
Thank you so much for the privilege of addressing the Lincoln Rotary.  It was a great pleasure to do it in person and, of course, to be introduced by Regent Clare.
 
I am very grateful for the opportunity to address all of the Rotarians that I have come to know and value across the state and the region, but particularly the Lincoln Rotary whose history dates back to some of the very early days of Rotarian service and, of course, to be now an honorary member.  I am truly touched by this generosity and will work hard to continue to exemplify the basic principles of Rotarian service.  As part of that service, please feel free to invite me back at any time.  If there are other things that I may be able to do to support our Rotarian colleagues, please feel free to ask at any time.
 
My very best wishes to you and yours and for the continued success of Lincoln Rotary.
 
With warmest personal regards,
Jeffrey P. Gold, M.D.
Executive Vice President and Provost
