Supporting RPD as We Mourn the Death of Officer Jeremy Labonte

Roswell Rotary has supported our first responders since inception. When we got the call on Saturday asking for help, a few Past Presidents, Rotarians and their significant others didn’t bat an eye. They stocked Roswell PD with snacks, drinks and BBQ from Slopes, Lola's Tavern, and Publix. 

This is Rotary, Service Above Self - I’m so proud to be your 2024/2025 President and grateful for every Rotarian in this club for embodying that motto! 
Please continue to pray for Officer Jeremy Labonte’s family and his entire family in Blue.
