Good Neighbor Recognition (added 4/6/2026)
The following Sunset Bay residents have been recognized for going above and beyond to make our community and the surrounding area a great place to live. We appreciate and honor each of you!

Greg & Sue
While Ed and I were on vacation a mighty wind blew our dock furniture into the lake, including two wrought iron chairs vintage 1995. These chairs had sat on our dock for 12 years, unaffected by wind. Upon our return I mentioned this, in passing, to Sue and Greg. The next thing I know they are pulling into my driveway, Greg making finding the chairs a challenge. Greg had brought a home "gaff hook" type implement that he had made in his youth. Sue assisted by keeping hold of the rope, feeding more as needed. Greg identified his search grid and methodically launched and dragged his hook "MacGyver" style. Within about 45 minutes the chairs were located and hoisted back on the dock. Thanks, Greg and Sue. I appreciate you!!

Roy & Susan
Roy and Susan have been exceptional neighbors. We all know what a drive and expense hotels are from Sunset Bay. They opened their home to us for the past 6 months as a place to stay while we were building. They even let us stay when they were out of town. They let our contractors use water from their house before ours was connected. Roy and Susan even watered our seed to get the grass growing. If packages or appliances were being delivered and Michael was not on site, they would accept them, make sure they worked and lock the house up after the delivery. Roy was invaluable as an ARC member when challenges arose with our build. After those discussions, the ARC hat came off and the neighbor hat was again in place. They have gone above and beyond the good neighbor meaning and we now consider them family. We are looking forward to years of friendship. Thank you Roy and Susan!!!

Reggie & Nancy
For the last 13+ years (twice a month), Reggie and Nancy have given their time and energy to prepare meals for our Sharps Chapel senior community. But what they provide goes far beyond food. They bring kindness, fellowship, and a sense of being cared for - something that means so much to everyone who gathers. Not only does the senior community of Sharps Chapel benefit from this and appreciate it from the bottoms of their hearts but so do residents of Sunset Bay. Their dedication, generosity, and consistency truly makes a difference in our community. It's the kind of quiet service that doesn't ask for recognition but absolutely deserves it.
Rick & Janet
Also needing recognition are Rick and Janet for their incredible dedication to our senior luncheons. Their work begins well before the luncheons - they spend time on Tuesday preparing the food, setting up tables/chairs, decorating and making sure everything is ready. Then on luncheon day, they're there again, helping to serve food, cleaning up the food, tearing down the tables/chairs and staying until everything is cleaned up. Their commitment, hard work, and willingness to do whatever is needed truly keeps everything running smoothly. It's a wonderful example of selfless service to our community.
Renee & Dianna
Also deserving of recognition are Renee and Dianna. Behind every great meal is a lot of hard work and they make sure everything is cleaned, dried and ready to go again. Their help with the dishes at our senior luncheons may happen behind the scenes but it is absolutely essential and deeply appreciated. Their willingness to step in and serve with such a positive spirit helps everything run smoothly and makes a big difference for everyone involved.
