FEEDING THE HUNGRY -- OUR HONOR ROLL
Thank you Dave Johnson! One of the people who did the most, from the beginning of the West Fullerton Improvement Committee until his death in July 2008, to help our neighborhood was our good friend Dave Johnson, who was a giant in more ways than just his physical stature. He not only worked hard at Hot Meal Ministry and at monthly food distributions, but he spoke out tirelessly and fearlessly in favor of the people in our corner of Fullerton. We miss you, Dave! (You can read
here a beautiful tribute to Dave Johnson which appeared in the
Fullerton Observer.)
