Dear Members and Friends,
Due to Governor Beshear’s new restrictions on gatherings and indoor dining that go into effect TODAY, Friday, November 20th at 5:00 p.m. local time and run through 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, December 13th we must cancel our Annual Meeting and Christmas party scheduled for November 30th.
The Executive Committee and I will meet virtually to discuss and explore options on how to proceed with the election of officers as there will be 3 seats vacant at the end of the year. We will be sending a follow up email with an update. We are living in extraordinary and difficult times and we appreciate your understanding as we try to adapt to these unique circumstances and ensure the safety of our members. As always, I am here to assist in any way, do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns.
Please know that even though we can’t be together, you’re being warmly thought of and wished a Happy Thanksgiving.
God bless you and yours.

Information adapted from the NKY Tribune article by Judy Clabes on Past KCRWC President, Eileen Harper. Link to full article is below.
By Judy Clabes NKyTribune editor
Eileen Harper, 88, of Crestview Hills, passed away on Sunday, March 29, St. Elizabeth Hospital in Ft. Thomas.
She and her husband, Ken Harper, were icons in the Republican Party for many years. Ken served as Kentucky’s Secretary of State and as a state representative for many years, and Eileen was there throughout long years of public service and influence. They married in May, 1953.
Eileen Kathman Harper was past president of the Covington Ro-Anns and the Kenton County Jaycee Wives, and past chairman of the Kenton County Republican Executive Committee, past chairman of Republican Women’s Club and past chairman and co-chair of the Diocesan Council of Catholic Women’s Bishop’s Seminary Ball, past chairman of the Kenton County Diocesan Council of Catholic Women’s’ Organization and past president of Thomas More College Women’s Guild, and as a board member of Sanitation District No. 1.
She graduated from Notre Dame Academy and was employed by the Adams, Brooking, Stepner, Woltermann and Dusing law firm for many years.
Eileen received the Kentucky Educational Television (KET) Public Service Award in 2016 and the Behringer-Crawford Museum’s Two-Headed Calif Award-Special Recognition Award in 2018. That annual award is now named for Ken and Eileen Harper.
She was a member of Blessed Sacrament Church in Ft. Mitchell.
Survivors in addition to her devoted husband of nearly 67 years include sons, Gregory Harper of Portland, ME, Scott (Kate) Harper of Florence, Glenn (Paula) Harper of Covington, Bryan (Janet) Harper of Burlington; daughter, Lesley (Victor) Hugo of Covington; sisters, Audrey (Donald) Schmidt of Mt. Washington, OH, and Evelyn (Richard) Lohr of Cold Spring; seven grandchildren, Andrew, John, Mitchell, Kole Fienauer, Keirstin Feinauer, Stephanie Zeidler and Nathan Zeidler; and two great-grandchildren, Aaron and Elliot Silber.
To protect the wellness of family and friends, a memorial Mass of Christian Burial will be held at Blessed Sacrament after COVID-19 restrictions have been lifted.
Eileen is counted among NKY’s deaths related to coronavirus-19. Though she was in ill health otherwise, she was among those most vulnerable to the virus. Her husband is currently under quarantine.
Her son Scott says — which will surprise no one who knew Eileen — that “In her last few days, she was so concerned that she would give this virus to someone — family, friend, healthcare worker . . . She would want it to be said that she fully supported the message of social distancing and following the recommended guidelines to protect yourself.”
So Eileen Harper gets the last word: Stay safe at home, wash your hands, and keep your social distance.

We have recently learned of the August 2019 passing of our longtime member and Honoree, Edna Whitus.
She was a member of Felts Chapel United Methodist Church. While she was a devoted U.K. Wildcat basketball fan and a very active member of the Republican Women’s Club, her greatest joy was her family whom she cherished.
In addition to her father and mother, she was preceded in death by her husband, Coy Whitus; three brothers: Lloyd Clark, Norman Clark, and Bill Clark; and her sister, Zora Watts. She leaves behind her daughter, Priscilla Ann Gipe; son, Jerry Whitus and wife Imogene; grandson, Robert A. Gipe and wife Sandy; and great-granddaughter, Alyssa Gipe. She is also survived by several sisters/brothers-in-law, other relatives, and numerous friends. She was dearly loved and will be deeply missed.
Funeral services were held on August 20, 2019. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations are suggested to either Corinth Cemetery Fund (Cumberland Valley National Bank P.O. Box 709 London, KY 40743) or Felts Chapel Cemetery Fund (Burlyn Calder 451 Scenic View Drive Corbin, KY 40701). Messages of condolence may be left at www.hartfhcorbin.com.
