Georgia Senior Women's Golf Association Championship Special Tribute

Last night was the GSWGA championship meeting/dinner.  Judy Gann, from the Canongate I ladies group, gave a heartfelt tribute to Mary Alice Ballard.  She shared several sweet and humorous stories about our friend and fellow golfer.   Mary Alice was honored by a standing ovation from over 200 GSWGA members. 
Also, at the Sanctuary Cove golf course, the number one hole had a sign (shown above) in memory of Mary Alice.  The Canongate ladies also wore their red dress pins in her memory. 
We all miss this special lady. 
Sybil Elliott, also of the Canongate group was honored as the oldest member participating. 
Newnan Country Club's Nancy Burks was also honored as "Lifetime Member" of GSWGA for her years of service and participation in the organization.
