    a valued HCCF member and Director on the Board.  Lee passed away on June 13, 2018 and will be sorely missed on the Board and in many other ways.  Among other things, Lee co-chaired the Wine Tasting in 2017 and was to again be co-chair in 2018.  He was always a guiding voice on the Board and contributed in many aspects.

    Our thoughts and prayers are with Gloria and Lee's entire family in this difficult time.
