Yes, Frank Lemanski is a member
of Sealy Rotary. He has been writing our weekly songs for the last two years.
Most of the time, he creates a song with a familiar melody and lyrics that fit
either that week’s Rotary event, or in the case of this week, it was a song
about it being hot and dry to the tune of “Deep in the Heart of Texas.”
Frank is a jewel. He volunteers
two days a week and hosts the Sealy Playtime Recreation which is for area
seniors. He feeds them (with the help of donations) and they play cards,
dominoes, or board games. It is an activity that was really needed here in
Sealy. So here is the deal:
All a club needs to do is to email
Jeri that they would like the songbook and that they are willing to make the
$30 donation to Polio Plus (we’ll use the honor system), and she will email them a copy of the
songbook. Jeri's email is jeri.dulaney@blinn.edu Because the
songs are in electronic format, it will be easy for them to print them off for
their members. Also, since a few of the songs are specific to Sealy, it would
be easy for clubs to take out names, events, etc. and put in the appropriate
names, events, etc. for their club. Below is an example of the songs from the
songbook, a song Frank wrote during our July transition of presidents for Sealy. It
is sung to the tune of Yellow Rose of Texas.
" Tim’s term here
as our president
Is fixing to
expire
We all know Jeri
Dulaney
She’s a gal
we’ve all admired
She’ll pick
right up where Tim left off
And lead us for
a year
She’s followed by Ms Tyler who
will lead us on from there"
"We want to thank
our Presidents
All current,
future, past
It’s quite a job
to have and do
Directing, what
a task
We love ya’ll
and admire you
God hold you in
his arms
Accept our
thanks for memories
Our club is
truly charmed"
