The motion carried unanimously. PENSION LIST Mr. Doss moved to approve the Pension List. Mr. Wood seconded the motion. The motion carried unanimously. INVESTMENT REPORT No investments report. OTHER BUSINESS Mr. Williams stated he had agreed with Kathy Skelton's attorney that they would argue the case on the law. The facts being, Kathy and Roy were married during part of the time that he was a fireman. That they got divorced on or about September 9, 1998. They entered into a qualified domestic relations order. Roy did not remarry Kathy prior to his death. He was going to say that he was survived by two minor children, Kelly and Kimberly. He was entitled to receive benefits from the Firemen's Pension Fund during his life prior to his death. His opinion is that Kathy was not his spouse. That she was an ex-spouse and therefore she should not receive the pension benefit. That it should go to the children. Mr. Doss stated it was his understanding that they would receive the benefit until age twenty-three if they stayed in college. They had to furnish proof of that they were in college. He did not believe that they could pay her the money even if they wanted to. Mr. Williams stated the fund was governed by the State statute and it stated "spouse." He did not believe that meant someone that he had divorced. Mr. Doss stated he would like to discuss a benefit increase for volunteer firemen at their next meeting.
