JOSEPH B. CAVALLARO #4884

Grand Knight’s Message

Brother Knights & Sister Columbiettes,

As the 2025/2026 Columbian year comes to a close, my 7 years as Grand Knight will officially also come to a close. I would like to thank all my fellow officers and members for your support, trust and confidence in the past 7 years to lead our council. We have went through a lot of things in those years, with the Covid pandemic, selling our building, relocating to our new “home” & restructuring on how to do the things that we do. I would not have been able to keep Cavallaro Council continuing to grow & be more active and represented strongly in the Parish, community and District without all of our members help, and for that I thank all of you very much.

I have been a member of this great Order since 1988 and decided to move on to my next endeavor as a Knight of Columbus. I have been asked (multiple times) and I have finally accepted to become a District Deputy. This will be a new adventure for me on the horizon, but do not worry, I will NOT be leaving Joseph B. Cavallaro Council. Over the years since I transferred into the council I made many friends who became family to me. I will ALWAYS be there for my Cavallaro brother Knights, Columbiettes and this Council.

Please help me welcome Deacon Bill Kelly as he becomes our new Grand Knight on 7/1/2026 leading us into the new Columbian year. Cavallaro will continue to grow & be active under his and our officer’s leadership.

In closing, again I would like to thank everyone for your support over the years. Again, just because I am becoming a District Deputy does not mean I am leaving this great council. I am always here. Feel free to contact me with any questions, ideas or just to talk anytime.

Thank you again my brothers and sisters.

Fraternally,
S.K. Mike A. Nuccio
Grand Knight
