(Inaugural speech of President Alvin D. Fernandez on the 67th Induction Ceremonies of the Rotary Club of Dagupan, July 9,2005, Don Alipio Fernandez, Sr. Peoples Astrodome. )
Governor Gerpy, dignitaries in the presidential table, ladies and gentlemen, a wonderful, wonderful evening.
Rotary is about making a difference.
I would like to thank my wife Katherine, my children Princess Katrina, look-alike Anton, Baby Lucky, Father, Mother, Father-in-law, Lolo Totong, Lola Meding, for being very supportive.
As the Godfather aptly stated, even with all the success in life, without your family, you are nothing! Thank you, family, for supporting me.
I would like to thank all the people who have supported and made this night successful and are making my servanthood in Rotary a fulfillment.
I would like to thank God Almighty for giving me the opportunity to serve, the resources to share, the talent and skill to pull and lead, the time to live life to the fullest to love.
And most of all, Rotarians who are willing to spend their time, talent and treasure to serve without asking or expecting anything in return, but the reward of just having done good to the community.
One year to lead, one year to be a servant leader of Rotary.
Let is make the most of what God has given for His greater glory. For we live to love, and love is helping other people, love is giving, love is sharing, love is caring.
Of the things we say, think or do, let it be the Rotary way: Service above self.
Let us make a difference! Let’s just do it!!!
