The last speech given by Greg Gomez while he was our grand knight

You had to be there for this speech

Two men are standing outdoors, shaking hands and smiling at the camera, with one man handing a watch to the other. They are under a tent near a table with snacks and supplies, with palm trees and a busy street with cars visible in the background, suggesting a community or outreach event.

Our new worthy grand knight looked more than up to the task!

I was afraid he was gonna use the gavel on me!

People gathered under a tent outdoors, some sitting, some standing, engaging in a social or community event.

Jose probably gave a very rousing and great speech here

Two men smiling, one in a brown robe and glasses, the other in a blue shirt, stand together under a tent at an outdoor community event.
