Our own Don Pumphrey was named Quota Club Person of the Year Thursday before a packed room of supporters. Don was saluted by emcee Al Caldwell, and speakers Clifford Pumphrey (Don's brother), Cindy Fertitta, Verna Rutherford, Dana Melancon, and Entergy manager Todd Dunkleberger for Don's helpfulness and willingness to pitch in.

   Don responded with a salute to wife Elaine and his family and friends. Ursula Lefkowitz, Linda Tait, and Janet Cline were among NPA Rotarians there to honor him.
