Juan was dear friend and a great volunteer for the San Rafael RotaCare clinic I enjoyed driving him home and his work with the patient was wonderful. He was a great psychologist and helped many people. My prayers are with you Beth and all his family.
The Rotary program that sponsors us is Marin Sunrise Rotary. It was an honor to work with him. I will miss him. Blanche
