He died Jan. 24.
• Lifelong contributions to the cattle industry by the late Lafayette Williams of Concord, 83, who owned Riverview Family Farm along the banks of Fort Loudoun Lake in Concord, most recently included the Distinguished Service Award from Tennessee Cattlemen Association in March 2019. He died in September.
• Known for his tireless service to The Rotary Club of Farragut, Mark Bialik, 61, was a licensed professional engineer and president with GBS Engineering. He died June 18.
“It is rare to come across a person that really exemplifies the Rotary 4-Way test,” RCF member Noah Myers said.
• A registered nurse who was accomplished in more than 10 needle arts — while also an advice columnist/designer for the internationally circulated “Women’s Circle Crochet” magazine — Joan Haines McIntee, 88, was best known locally for decades of selfless service to The Rotary Club of Farragut. She died Dec. 15.
“He always told the truth (even though that’s not what you wanted to hear); his decisions were always fair; he always wanted goodwill for others; and, more than anything, he wanted his actions to benefit those around him and his community.
“Mark has been instrumental in quarterbacking our flu-shot Saturdays since the inception,” Myers added. “There is a massive void to be filled in our club. Not only did we lose a great Rotarian, I lost one of my best friends.” He died June 18.
