September is here and once again we are planning for Patriot’s Day at the Legion. On Monday, September 11th, at 6pm, we will get together for a “covered dish” meal and some music. We will also take the time to reflect on the events that happened on that day in 2001, sixteen years ago. From around the country, Americans came together to assist all of those devastated by those terrorist acts. Today members of the Armed Forces are working to fight terrorism in places outside the United States in an effort to prevent similar acts from happening here again. Everyone is invited to the Post, especially families with a member who is a public service worker or a member on active duty in the Armed Forces. As always, we look forward to giving a “Blue Ribbon Banner” to those families in honor of their father, mother, son or daughter. We continue to look for new members. If you’re interested in the Legion, Ladies Auxiliary or Sons of the Legion call the Post (786-5356) for information. Bingo is on Fridays at 8pm. Cards go on sale at 7pm. Horseshoes are planned for Saturday evenings at 7pm with sign-in starting at 6:30. Both events are open to the public and everyone is invited to participate. The Legion and Auxiliary meet on the second Monday of the month, with social hour (and food) starting at 6pm and the meeting at 7pm. The Sons of the Legion meet on the third Monday at 7pm. As always, Linda or Joseph will have the canteen open at 5pm every day except Sunday. We are closed on Sunday unless there is a special event. Jay Ransom Blessed Earth: 07/03/41 Blessed Heaven: 07/24/17 Our dear friend, Jay, has left us to be with his wife, Molly, who passed away in May, 2014. Jay was awesome! He had this laugh that was just so contagious and his smile was an ear to ear legitimate face splitter! After speaking with those that remember him best, Jay was all about his wife, Molly, and his daughter, Susan aka Ransom. He loved to play pool and whenever he walked into Benny’s (his bar) everyone stood up to give him their chair. He was a true mathematical genius, along with many other talents. Jay had the biggest heart, and after one intense conversation with Tess about dying and the hereafter, he said, “Y’all do what you want to. I am going straight to Molly.” So, cheers to you Jay!! Tell Molly we said, “Love you girl” and we will all see you when our time is due. 16 TYBEE BEACHCOMBER | SEPT 2017 1513 Butler �� Tybee Island, GA ���������������������������������������������������������������������������� ���������������������������������������������������������������������� 6:30pm to 8:30pm Happy Hour Monday - Friday 4pm - 7pm Karaoke Thursday 7pm Live Band Friday & Saturday 9pm - ??? 12 HD TV’s - Video Games - Keno 912-786-4444 100% PURE FUN!
