I have received numerous honors and awards for public service, however, I am most deeply touched by the San Leandro High Jefferson Service Club honoring me as "Volunteer of the Month". Special thanks to Andy Gee, president, for the submission to the "San Leandro Times" (June 12, 2010). I think the SLHS Jefferson Servic...e Club deserves a "double honor" for their excellent service to 1,000 Mothers to Prevent Violence and the community. "I am so proud of you, keep up the good work."
