Bob Murphy approached me after Uncle Nicky passed away with an idea on a tribute to his memory. A Soprano bugle would be purchased with his name on it to be played by a current member so that Uncle Nicky would be with us on the field of competition this and every season. Again, this effort went better than expected and a Mellophone was also purchased. Below are the names of those who participated in this effort:

Soprano Bugle Gene Bennett Frank Diliberto Frank Dorritie John Oliveri Dick Papot George Knoebel Bob Murphy	Mellophone Bugle Judy DiGabriele Bruce Emmott John & Joan Griffin John & Mary Kelley John Clougher Steve Buglino George Knoebel Laurel & Bob Murphy

On behalf of the Sunrisers, I would like to thank each and every one of you. The current Sunrisers appreciate what you have done for them and applaud your efforts. You are truly Sunrisers. Stop down to see how your contributions and efforts have helped the Sunrisers to survive. Because of Sunrisers like you, the Sun will Rise Again.

Thank You All Again,
