A Farewell to Mrs. Diana Johns We are sad to say goodbye to our esteemed Honorary Advisor, and friend, Mrs. Diana Johns.

As wife of the Commander, Air Mobility Command, General Raymond Johns, Mrs. Johns has been an inspiration to us all, and her past three years at Scott AFB will leave a long-lasting influence.

Although we realize that changes of station and retirements are part of our military spouses’ lives, the time of farewell to our friends is never an easy one. With General Johns’ retirement, it is with regret that the members of the SOSC say good-bye to Mrs. Diana Johns.

As our Honorary Advisor since her arrival here at Scott AFB, Diana has opened her home for the Tour of Homes, board meetings, and has given wonderful items to the SOSC Trivia Night Auction. Diana has given her time and experience in guiding and assisting those of us whom have had the privilege of serving with her on the board. Her kind words of appreciation to the outgoing board members, as well as her encouraging remarks to the new ones, will long be remembered.

This tribute to Mrs Diana Johns would not be complete without expressing our sincere gratitude to her for sharing her time, talents and energies to the many families she has touched throughout their military career.

Godspeed to you both as you enter the joy of retirement. We wish you blue skies and tail winds.

Drop off dates: *Dec 12....members please bring your homemade cookies to the SOSC function *Dec 13...Drop off and packaging will be on base at Chapel 1 from 7:30 am - 9 am and at 9:30 am we will begin the process of bagging the cookies until all cookies are wrapped !

There is no need to wrap the cookies in individual packages.

They will be combined with others to ensure everyone gets a festive variety! If you would like to volunteer please contact: volunteer@scottosc.com.

The SOSC has been asked to donate cookies for this event. If you can run/ walk and donate cookies that would be wonderful!

If you can only donate cookies, that would also be greatly appreciated.
