Brothers,

This has been a difficult week for Scouts and families in the Currahee District.

On August 27th, Heidi Groce passed away. Her son, Crawford, is a member of our Lodge. He completed his Ordeal in March at Spring Induction and attended Pre-Camp, where he worked with our dining hall staff. Heidi was very active within our District and Council, serving as the event coordinator for many Cub Scout camps. Her obituary can be viewed at this link: https://www.barrettfh.com/obituary/heidi-groce

Wes Dodd passed away on Sept. 1st. Wes was an active supporter of Scouts in our District and Council for decades. Although it has been many years since Wes was active in our Lodge, some of our Lodge members will remember him. His arrangements are not yet finished, but his obituary is available at this link: https://memorials.mcgaheegriffinandstewart.com/wesley-avery-wes-dodd-jr/4712497/index.php?_ga=2.74019538.1399319744.1630522318-890838821.1625833964

Tragically, Courtney Zajdowicz also passed away on Sept. 1st. She is the daughter of David Cross and sister to Dominic Cross. David and Dominic are both members of our Lodge and are still active with Troop 6 in Rabun County.

I'm sorry to send this information, but I feel that it's important to share this with everyone. We are truly saddened by this. Please pray for the families and friends of these individuals.
