District Governor Dr. Jun Valera has announced that he is
NOT endorsing candidates for 2022-2023 District Governors.
It is with profound sadness that District 4-C4 announces the passing of Burlingame Lion Kevin Kielty. Lion Kevin’s battle with cancer came to an end peacefully at home surrounded by his family on March 14th. Kevin’s love for his family, his friends and making an impact in the community was shown with years of coaching softball, volunteering with Lions ClubS and his tenure in the Arborist world. The family asks that in lieu of flowers, please plant a tree in honor of Lion Kevin, or donate to LCIF or the Lions charity of your choice. A celebration of his life is being planned and more information will be shared later. Condolences may be sent to Lion Debbie Kielty and Family, 2216 Portsmouth Way, San Mateo CA 94403.
Our thoughts are with Lion Kevin’s family, friends and fellow Lions.
