Brother Knights:As we start the month of Sep-tember, let’s look back at allthe activities of July. The
Council started with the annual Boat Trip on the De-troit River with a beautiful night, great weather andunforgettable friendship. Co-chairmen Joe Kronk
and Joe Reardon PGK have chaired this event forabout ten years. We had attendance of a hundred pluspeople which is up from last year’s count, great jobguys, thank you.
Next we had the Annual Council Picnic with ap-proximately 200 people (also up from last year). Westarted with a beautiful day and Mass with Fr. Den-
nis Kauffman from Catholic Central. The food,games and lots of fun came next. This was chaired byKevin Vissotski, Todd Waldo, Greg Knoph andJohn Widmer as our target in the dunk tank. Also letus not forget our cooking crew Jerry Miller, Dennis
Kelly, Steve Gierak and his son Steve supported byMark Kronk. Thanks again everyone.
We honored Pat and Kay Casey as the Family ofthe Year for 2009-10 at the picnic. At the monthlygeneral meeting, we honored Joe Reardon PGK forhis leadership over the past two years as GrandKnight, Sam Aldridge for the Knight of the Year for2009-10, Larry Kenney PGK for Knight of theMonth, and Mark and Carol Kronk for the Familyof the Month for July, 2010. Congratulate and thankthem when you see them for all their help. Remembermembers, to send me any person’s or family’s namefor Knight or Family of the Month and a short reasonwhy they should be honored. They will be selectedby a vote by the officers of your council at the Offi-cer’s Meeting on the second Monday of the month.
The Council participated in the annual State K of C, Detroit Tiger Day. We started with a Masswith Fr. Kauffman, followed by coffee, donuts andfruit, then a bus ride to the game. All of this waschaired by Ken Shureb and his wife Janet, anotherbig thank you.
Quick reminder for this month is the D of I lunch-eon and card party on Sunday, the 26th at noon.
Closing on a cheerful note, John Widmer’s sonsjoined our council; they took their 1st. Degree on Au-gust 4th. Congratulations to John and Joe and wel-come.

The Monaghan Council and the Donne-Gals
under the leadership of Jennifer Dupuie, Presi-
dent, are in the process of forming a circle called
Knights’ Daughters which are sanctioned by the
Michigan State Council. The Knights’ Daugh-
ters is a special youth group for girls between the
ages of 10 and 17. The first circle was founded in
Lansing Michigan on January 1982.
The circle was started to provide an opportu-
nity for young Catholic ladies to come together
with adult guidance to learn how to conduct
and/or attend a business meeting using Parlia-
mentary Procedure, organize and successfully
carry-out fundraisers, and become involved in
community service and parish activities.
The Michigan’s Knights Daughters is a great
way to show these young women that it is okay
to practice their faith and meet other young
women with the same beliefs. The future of our
faith lies in the hands of young men and women.
This program is offered to Knights of Columbus
member’s spouses and their daughters.
MISSIONThe mission of the Knight’s Daughters and its
director is to form the morals of our future
women leaders and to help them in any endeavor
in which they may choose, be that a doctor, sen-
ator, accountant, or the most important and noble
job of mom.

Mark and Erin Gibson proudly, and most
happily, announce the birth of their first
child, Grady Ryan. Grady was born July
12th and came in smiling at 7 lbs., 13 oz
and 20-1/2 inches long. Equally proud grandparents PGK
Dick and Vicki Gibson and John and Adrienne Brody
waited patiently outside the door at U of M’s Children’s
Hospital.
Another happy birth announcement is also made by
Brother Knight Kevin Kosco who proudly let’s us know of
the birth of Michael Robert Kosco who came into the
world at 9 lb 7oz. on July 10th. All of us remember
Michael’s grandfather, our friend the late Gerry Kosco.
As always, we all pray that these two new little guys have
a God blessed life and seats in the first degree class of 2028
await them both.
Kevin and Ellen Twomey proudly, announce the birth
of their third child, Margurite Joan. “Maggie” was born
July 31st weighing 7 lbs., 12 oz and 20-1/2 inches long.
Proud grandparents Pat and Judy Twomey and Dave and
Barb Kozlowski made the journey to Chicago for the joy-
ous occasion.
Would the unruly boys from the SMR class of 1964 who
disrupted Sr. Eula’s Biology class by taking the gold fish
from the tank and hiding them from the good sister, turn
yourself into the office? (Just some of the interesting stuff
you hear at the lounge).
What a bus trip but not a Tiger victory! First-time Chair-
man Ken Shureb worked hard to put together the trip to
the ball game that consisted of 51 members and guests.
Starting with 11am mass at the Council officiated by Fr.
Dennis Kauffman, a continental breakfast followed. Re-
freshments on the bus ride, tickets to a very hot K of C
ball game. Those same refreshments on the bus ride home
made it a little more comfortable. More than 520 K of C
members from around the state attended the Comerica
Park event. Thanks Ken for stepping up and for a job well
done.
Brother Knight and past Warden Bill Bauer and his
wife MaryLee certainly have more free time on their
hands. Both retired this past summer. Bill for the second
time–first from the Detroit Police Dept and finally as the
Ordinance Officer for West Bloomfield after 10 years.
MaryLee has retired from the Livonia Public Schools. Bill
can now spend time on his greatest passion: Flying. Con-
gratulations to the family Bauer.
If you didn’t already know, our own Erik Mayernik,
PGK is our newest District Deputy replacing Larry Ven-
dal, PGK. Eric is responsible for the successful operations
of all the Livonia Councils: Monaghan, St. Collette, St.
Edith, Daniel Lord and St Priscilla. On Aug 2nd, Erik and
fellow District Deputies hosted their yearly meeting. Over
70 Knights called Monaghan their home for one evening
of meetings, encouragement and speeches. Our kitchen
committee consisting of Bill Bauer, Ed Nagrant, Dennis
Kelly, and Joe Reardon PGK put on quite a barbecue for
those in attendance. Continued on page four, col. 1
