We Dedicate this 24th Annual Scramble Golf Tournament

to the Memory of Sean F. Tibbetts

Sean Tibbetts died at the age of 41 on Feb-

ruary 23 of this year after a long and coura-

geous battle with cancer. Sean was a grad-

uate of Brockton High School and was at-

tending Bridgewater State University. He

was a life long resident of Brockton and

has worked for 12 years for Computershare

in Canton. He was stationed in Korea with

the U.S. Army and worked as a civilian in

the CIA in Virginia and at the Pentagon.

He was a life long member of the First

Evangelical Lutheran Church in Brockton

and a member of the Davis School PTA.

He was an avid Patriot and Bruins fan and

enjoyed running and spending

time with his children and fam-

ily. Sean was a strong support-

er of the work that the church

did for those in need within the

community and for his life and

witness we say “Thanks be to

God.”

The committee would like to extend its thanks to Church/Financial Secretary, Paula M. Fedele for her

assistance with mailings, record keeping and other work in making this tournament a success.

First Evangelical Lutheran Church of Brockton was organized on April 30, 1867 as the

First Swedish Evangelical Lutheran Church of North Bridgewater. Founded by Swedish immi-

grants, the church was the first religious institution in New England established by Scandinavi-

ans. As the demographics of Brockton have changed over the years, First Lutheran has become

a regional church, drawing membership from a radius of approximately 35 miles. An anchor in

the neighborhood for over 140 years the parish today provides social services and outreach to

the local community through the Fruth Center and Hilston Gymnasium, providing space for

substance abuse support groups, the Food for Friends Food Pantry, Brockton Youth Hockey

Bingo and other community groups.

We invite you to attend Sunday services at 7:45 & 9 am and encourage you to visit our

website, www.firstevlutheran.org, often to see other opportunities of which to avail yourself.
