Jim Womack was a loyal member of Kiwanis with 9 years of perfect attendance.  After retirement, Jim dedicated a large majority of his time to the Rutherford County Farm Museum with his dear friend, Wilbur Burgin.  He loved A model cars and was an "expert" on the history of Rutherford County.

 

Ed Thompson was a well-known Rutherford County "celebrity" as the owner of Ron & Eddy's Restaurant.  Ed had a passion for fundraising!  He loved raising money for the Democratic Party almost as much as he loved fundraising for his Kiwanis Club.  Ed was very outspoken and had a wonderful sense of humor. 

Bruno Hoffman enjoyed the fellowship and friendship of the Kiwanis Club.  He participated in every pancake breakfast, spaghetti supper and little league picnic while he was a club member.  He was always willing to lend a helping hand and often greeted the younger members of the club with "Hi ya, kiddo!".
