SUNSHINE NEWS

Lion Sandee Ige could really use a little extra sunshine from her friends and fellow Lions. She’s been living at Millwood Assisted Living and was doing well, but her health recently has taken a turn, and she’s now in hospice care. With her birthday coming up on October 16th, a call, card, or visit would brighten her day.

If you’d like to send that ray of sunshine, you can reach her at 416 Millwood, Millbrae, or give her a call at (650) 777-8166. If you plan to visit, please call ahead to make sure it’s a good time.

Congratulations to DG Clayton and Lion Mary Kay Jolley on the birth of their first grandchild, Tristen Jolley born Friday in Portland to proud parents Warren and Aubrey.
