Nicole Hahn On Saturday, May 20, the Ladies Auxiliary of the Knights of Columbus Monsignor Thomas Dillon Council 1014 in Huntington held a Wine Around the World event at their facility to raise money for the Rob Mayo Scholarship Fund. There were wine tastings and music presented by world-renowned four-time Grammy nominated jazz musician Denny Jiosa. The event brought in more than $3,000 for the scholarship fund.

The scholarship was created in memory of Rob Mayo, Property Manager of St. Felix Monastery, after he passed away.
