SUNSHINE
PDG Bob “Skipper” Wilson could really use some sunshine. After battling illness for the past few years, he could use some cheer right now. He served as District Governor from 2012 to 2013 with the motto “Live Well, Laugh Often, Love Much”. Let’s send him our love and positive thoughts. Please send your “Thinking of You” cards to 480 Monterey St, Brisbane, CA 94005.
