Today, 10 new Lions became members of the HOPE Services Branch of the SIlicon Valley Lions Club of Mountain View. Immediate Past District Governor Marlene Duffin inducted the new members and District Governor Joe installed the officers. Mountain View Mayor Ronit Bryant was on hand to present a proclamation from the city.
HOPE Services provides programs and services for children, adults and seniors with developmental disabilities. This new branch club offers some of their clients the opportunity to participate more fully in their community, volunteering their time and enjoying fellowship with their fellow Lions.

Lion Juanita Martin passed away peacefully in her sleep on February 23. Born in Roseville, CA on June 27, 1922, she moved to Carmel after marrying the love of her life, J. B. Martin, Jr., on July 10, 1960.
Juanita enjoyed knitting, baking and, above all else, spending time with her family. She was also very fond of penguins, Reba McEntire, crossword puzzles and her extensive Teddy Bear collection and was proud to be a charter member of the Mission Trail Lions Club of Carmel. Juanita passionately supported the projects of the club, Diabetes, White Cane, and City of Hope.
Juanita, or “Nana” as her many great-grandchildren called her, is survived by her loving daughter and son-in-law, CST Lion Jean and ZC Lion George “Bud” Westcott, granddaughter Lion Ginger Huse and grandson Lion George “Wes” Westcott, all of Mission Trail Lions Club, son Millard Martin of WA, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and one great-great-granddaughter.
