Letters to the Editor
Editor:
Please don’t kill me. I have been riding my bicycle to the pool, social events, the clubhouses and
shopping mall since 2012. I get close calls all the
time from drivers not paying attention to the rules.
So here are a few tips:
• Stop at the white line next to the stop sign,
look and roll into the intersection.
• Watch out for bicycles going out the south
gate (St. Andrews Drive) and don’t rush through
the intersection leaving St. Andrews by turning
right toward the church.
• Watch for bicycles turning left on St. Andrews going towards clubhouse 4 turning onto
Northwood Road.
• Keep the required distance on the road (three
feet away from bicycle driver)
• Don’t open doors without checking both sides
of the street and sidewalk.
When a car passes a bike, the car must leave a
safe distance between the car and the bike. California law specifically states that a safe distance means
at least three feet between the car and the bicycle.
The safe distance must be maintained by the
car driver until the car is safely past the bicycle.
Bikes can share the same lane with drivers.
If a lane is wide enough to share with another
vehicle (about 14 feet), bicycles ride three feet to
the right of traffic.
If the lane is not wide enough to share, “take
the lane” by riding in the middle.

Editor:
If there is no one who censors the language
that is sung in the Amphitheater in what is usually
excellent and wholesome entertainment, then there
should be.
The vulgarity of the words sung by one of the
performers at the Aug. 29 performance was an
insult and not something our young guests, our
grandchildren, needed to be exposed to.
Outside The Wall
Apologizing before using such words does not
make it OK to say them.
Shame on that performer.

Editor:
My compliments for the concert on Aug.15
arranged by the Leisure World Korean-American
Club.
I was very impressed by the professional talent
of those who organized the show, and even more
so, by the extremely talented singers and pianists.
I enjoyed the show much more than many of other
recent shows in LW.
I definitely would like to encourage many more
non-Korean Americans not to miss any future shows
put on by our Korean friends and neighbors in LW.
I observed that of the approximately 200 people
who attended, only about 40 were non-Korean.
So thank you to the members of our LW KoreanAmerican Club.

Editor:
What a wonderful opportunity we have as
shareholders of Leisure World: to perform for
our friends and neighbors at such a venue as the
Amphitheater once a year. And for the rest of us
to enjoy these talents as we have on three straight
Saturday evenings.
But I wonder what rules have been put in place
to ensure good taste and respectful language.
My husband and I were very upset that one performer was able to “perform” a song that included
several offensive words that we as seniors should
not be subjected to.
We sincerely hope that in the future there will
be some screening of material to ensure that our
community’s standards and sense of good taste are
protected from such vulgarity.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING - GOLDEN RAIN FOUNDATION
July 28, 2015
Call to Order
President Winkler called the regular monthly meeting of the Golden Rain Foundation (GRF)
Board of Director (BOD) meeting to order at 10:00 a.m., on Tuesday, July 28, 2015, in
Clubhouse Four.
Pledge of Allegiance
In recognition of service to the community, the President of the Sunshine Club, Anna Derby,
was asked to lead the Pledge of Allegiance. “Building Bridges for a Brighter Leisure World”
has been the mission since the founding of the Sunshine Club in 2012. The club promotes
communication, acceptance, respect and cultural understanding of the diverse population
within Leisure World. The President thanked her and the club members for their work in the
community.
Roll Call
The Corporate Secretary reported that Directors Blake, R. Stone, Pratt, Snowden, L. Stone,
Reed, Hood, Wood, Rapp, McGuigan, Dodero, Winkler, Greer, Damoci, Lukoff, Friedman and
Moore were present. Director Bolton was absent. Executive Director Ankeny and Controller
Miller were also present.
Announcements/Service Award Presentation
The Committee meeting schedule is published in the Golden Rain News. All committee
meetings are open to Shareholder/Foundation members.
The Security Chief, Jaime Guerrero, presented a service plaque and pin to:

The Recreation Supervisor, Terry DeLeon, presented a service plaque and pin to:

On behalf of the GRF Board members, the President thanked these employees for their
dedicated service.
The President announced that Vice President Damoci requested removal of # 8.a.ii., GRF
By-Laws Budget Planning, from the agenda today. No objections were made.
President’s Comments
The new fiscal organizational year is up and running. All the Standings Chairs have held
their first meetings, Vice Chairs have been elected and Sub-Committees are forming and doing their homework. So far, the Policy and Procedure Rewrite Sub-Committee will hold its
first meeting on the 30th and the Emergency Preparedness will meet on the 31st. Finance has
formed a sub-committee on Leases and Contracts. Before the end of August, we will be able
to report on additional sub-committees whose primary duties are to gather information and
make recommendations to the Standing Committees.
As usual, rumors are quickly making the rounds throughout our community. Rumor: A large
black coyote has been seen within our walls. Fact: Pictures of this animal indicate it is a large
black, somewhat thin Labrador, which is no longer on our property.
Rumor: By amending the lease agreement between the Foundation and the Health Care Center,
new patients will be coming into our community without any restrictions and they could carry
viruses and diseases, fill up our parking lot and make it difficult for our residents to see their
doctors on a timely basis. Fact: The Health Care Center doctors’ focus is on patients who, as
a rule, qualify as senior citizens. We have no pediatric or children’s doctors and no plans are
in process to do so. In addition, every single person who comes into the Health Care Center
who is not a resident is called into Security every single day. This would include pharmaceutical representatives, lab couriers, vendors, and medical specialists. In addition, longer wait
times are now the standard. I have talked to people using outside doctors and clinics and they
are experiencing long waits if they can find a doctor who will take Medicare. To date, three
months after the lease was signed, there has been only one new patient.
I did do some checking with our Security Department and found the non-resident ping pong
players, the dancers and other clubs and organizations all call in their guests and/or give them
pink passes. Now there is an area where we don’t know who is coming into our community.
What is interesting is the unfettered access outsiders have on Saturdays, Sundays and special
events for religious groups, members and guests. This is an area no one wants to change; just
keep in mind on Sunday mornings non-residents can either drive or walk into our community
by just indicating they are attending a church service.
One of our biggest challenges is that the majority of theft, vandalism and other incidents are
due to relatives or guests of residents. At some time in the future, we need to review our policies on our resident passes. As I have stated before, if all of them are given out or purchased,
we could have 56,000 unknown visitors through our gates. Residents also need to be very
careful who they allow to accompany their caregivers.
Recently, the City of Seal Beach has begun legal proceedings to protest the Cal Trans decision
to add more lanes to the 405/22 freeways outside our walls. The majority of the space needed
will come from the north side of the freeway in College Parks East and West. However, we
also get the pollution and the dirt. Cleaning up the black gunk that falls on patios and vegetation can be somewhat disconcerting. As shared with us several years ago by the AQMD, the
black gunk isn’t a problem as it doesn’t stick to our lung tissue, only the micro pollution and
their tests found very little micro pollution from the energy plants when concerns were raised.
Maybe we should consider retesting for air pollution from our freeways.
The issue: just how much should our residents get involved with this fight? I personally
think we need to at least discuss its ramifications on our residents, many who have respiratory issues. I do know Seal Beach residents that will be impacted by this issue are speaking
up at the Seal Beach City Council meetings. I encourage our residents to find out as much as
possible on this issue so your board of directors can make good decisions on a controversial
subject. Don’t hesitate to attend City Council meetings which are normally held on the 2nd
and 4th Tuesday of the month. Also, talk to our City Council Representatives and let them
know your thoughts and concerns about the 405 expansion.
The Foundation and Mutual Boards of Directors have started to work on their annual budgets
for 2016. This process takes almost three months before they are finalized. We now have
three budgets to work with, the operations budget, the reserve budget for repairs and replacements and a capital budget to pay for a new piece of equipment such as our second data server,
which was recommended by our accountants.
Now is the time for any club or organization which wishes to enhance, replace or repair any
item in their work and/or meeting rooms to put their requests in writing to the appropriate
committee. If, for instance, the wood shops needed to replace an old woodworking machine
as the one in place is possibly dangerous to operate, they need to approach the Recreation
Committee, in writing, with the whys and wherefores and address their concerns at the Committee meeting. It is too late to ask for new and/or improved amenities in July or August of
2016 as it wouldn’t be in the budget. The Civil Code requires us to get this information in
the shareholder/members hands no later than December 1st, which means it must be approved
by the Foundation Board of Directors in late September or early October so it can be printed
in early November.
Our “Inside Our Walls Activities” seem to be very popular. Everyone had a rocking good
time at our 4th of July celebration, held in the parking lot of Club House 6. Some beautiful
classic cars were displayed which included a couple of manufacturers I have never heard of,
several rows of decorated golf carts were in line for all to admire, people were lined up for
barbecue ribs and Gina and the Bootleggers had many people moving and dancing to some
great music. Inside Clubhouse Six were tables with shareholders displaying their handcrafted
items. Yes, there are a few areas we need to improve; however, notes were taken and we hope
to make these inside get-togethers even better in the future. Although it must go through the
approval process, I believe we will have some kind of celebration in October and, of course,
once again a holiday party in December. However, the party will be indoors this year. Outdoors was just too uncomfortable because of the cold weather. Any suggestions and ideas to
promote our activities within our walls are always welcome, so bring them to the Recreation
Committee and share them with our Board members.
One final note. If we don’t use it, we will lose it. This is in regard to the inside Farmer’s
Market. Their fruits and vegetables are fresh and varied, the bread and cakes worth taking
home and the guacamole and chips are delicious. However, we need more vendors and vendors
won’t participate unless they have more sales. This is such a benefit to our residents; please
mark your calendars and amble on down or take a bus to the Administration parking lot, on
Sunday, from 9 to 2 o’clock and enjoy!
Shareholder/Member Comments
Three shareholder/members spoke on various topics concerning the operations of the community.
NOTE: Foundation members are permitted to make comments before the business of the
Board begins. Requests must be registered in advance of the meeting and comments are
limited to four minutes.

of instrumental sounds.
The magic continues unabated today under the leadership of John
Mills, who is the son, grandson and nephew of the original group’s
members. Mills and Elmer Hopper, who spent 21 years with the
Platters, will recreate the inimitable sounds of The Mills Brothers
on stage tonight.
John Mills had performed with his father, Donald Mills, the last
surviving original, since 1982.
From the first time The Mills Brothers stepped onto a stage at the
Mays Opera House in Piqua, Ohio, more than two generations ago,
their distinctive sound captured the fancy of audiences.
Honored with a Grammy for Lifetime Achievement in 1998, The
Mills Brothers’ harmonies and unmistakable repertoire of hits still
resonate with audiences.
Among the memorable portfolio of recordings that Mills and
Hopper present are “Tiger Rag,” the original group’s first hit from
1928, “Cab Driver,” “Glow Worm,” “Lazy River,” “Yellow Bird,”
“Basin Street Blues,” “Opus One,” “Paper Doll” and many others.
The parade of Mills Brothers’ recordings continued into the 1990s,
when John and his father released their own CD, “Still…There’s
You,” a compilation of some of the original group’s greatest songs
and new material composed by John.
The number of Mills Brothers records sold is uncountable, certainly well into the tens of millions. They had a certifiable hit each
year between 1935-1947.
The hits kept coming through the mid-1960s with “Cab Driver.”
“Paper Doll” alone sold six million copies in its first release, and it
was just one of more than 2,000 recordings that produced at least
three dozen legitimate hits.
In 1974, at the age of 19, Hopper was personally trained by Paul
Robi, (the baritone of the original group.)
He accompanied Robi on an international tour spanning the globe
from Japan and China, to Canada and Australia in what was said to
be the best ensemble of The Platters since the group’s inception.
Hopper and Robi were best friends for more than 15 years until
Robi succumbed to cancer in February 1989. He did not leave Hopper without a final message of inspiration. During a visit, just a few
days before Robi passed away, he asked Elmer to “…please continue
keeping The Platters’ legacy alive.”
Not long after losing his dear friend and mourning the loss of a
great team member, Hopper hit the stage with renewed vigor touring
the world with The Platters for the next several years.
Upon the hospitalization of Donald F. Mills, Sr. of the Mills
Brothers, Hopper joined forces with Donald’s son John in June 1999.
Forming the newest generation of The Mills Brothers, the pair now
recreates the music that has been embraced by audiences since 1922.
On tour, Mills and Hopper have combined their talents to present
the music in the original keys and with the original scores, which
demands a high level of vocal musicality that is rare today.
Hopper is a gifted singer who says that performing in the show
has been gratifying.
“Capacity crowds singing along with familiar songs, rising to
their feet cheering through multiple standing ovations... there’s
nothing like it,” he said.

Larry Blake
LW contributor
by
Forty years ago area community theaters were at their peak.
Anywhere from 50-100 actors
showed up at an audition. Times
have changed. Now not enough
actors show up at an audition,
and the theater and director have
to scramble to fill the remaining
roles.
How a play or musical gets
chosen is no longer as simple as
saying let’s do so-and-so play.
Now an analysis must be made
to determine if the necessary talent pool is available. There also
must be special care in matching
the right director with the chosen
piece. Neither of those strategies
appears to have been used in this
revival of “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum,”
now playing at the Attic Theatre
in Santa Ana.
The musical takes place in
front of three houses in a “less
fashionable suburb” of ancient
Rome. First is the house of
Erronius (Jon Rasmussen), “a
befuddled old man in search of
his children, who were stolen in
infancy by pirates.”
Second is the house of Marcus
Lycus (Seth Weiner), a “seller of
the flesh of beautiful women.”
It’s the polite way of saying he
runs a brothel. Third is the house
of Senex (Randy Calcetas) and
his wife, the appropriately named
Domina (Margie Ikerd).
Here lives the protagonist, the
slave Pseudolus (Eric J. Hindley),
whose goal in life is to buy his
freedom.
The opportunity for freedom
comes when the son of Senex,
Hero (Dennis Dyck), falls in love

SPRAY
Musical Theatre West
From page 1
Grove and Stanton will be sprayed.
County officials are concerned by the skyrocketing number of
mosquitos infected with the virus this year.
Usually, 10-20 percent of samples annually collected in Orange
County test positive for WNV. This year, the rate has reached 80 percent, according to Jared Deaver, OCVCD director of communications.
More than 90 people have been infected with WNV in Orange
County.
Spraying began Tuesday and is scheduled through Friday, Sept.
11, weather permitting. Duet, a mosquito control product, will be
used. It is used throughout the United States to help control adult
mosquito populations.
Prior to registering a product, the EPA evaluates products thoroughly to be sure there is a “reasonable certainty of no harm” to
humans, animals and the environment from their use.
Duet is applied in very low dosages—roughly a tablespoon to
treat an area the size of a football field—and dissipates quickly, according to an OCVCD press release.
There is no need to stay indoors, cover outdoor pet food or replace
outdoor water in bowls, ponds and water features, though residents
certainly are free to do so.
There also is no requirement to cover cars or wash down outdoor
play equipment. However, the insecticide is toxic to other insects so
beekeepers and those with insects kept outdoors are encouraged to
shelter hives and habitats during spraying operations.
The cities of Tustin, Orange, Anaheim and Santa Ana have the
most WNV activity in mosquitoes and dead birds so far this year.
WNV is transmitted to humans through the bite of an infected
mosquito.
As of Aug. 27, the Orange County Health Care Agency’s Public
Health Services reported five human cases of WNV in residents
from the cities of Anaheim, Orange, Garden Grove, Newport Beach
and Tustin.
A combination of warm temperatures, high mosquito trap counts,
and high infection rates in mosquitoes indicate that further disease
transmission to humans is highly likely.
In Leisure World, inspectors check on the flood control channel
along Golden Rain Road every 10 days and have stocked mosquito fish
in the channel between Leisure World and the Haynes Power Plant.
OCVCD has also placed mosquito traps in LW to monitor mosquito activity.
The virus is usually transmitted to humans from a bite by an
infected mosquito and can cause flu-like symptoms and, in rare
instances, death.
For most people, the risk of serious illness is low.
People 50 or older have the greatest risk of developing serious
complications.
OCVCD has been working to combat the spread of WNV through
public outreach and expansion of adult mosquito control activities in
neighborhoods, parks, and other public gathering spaces. OCVCD
has also continued to intensify ground-based control efforts, but the
activities have not significantly reduced adult mosquito populations.
The decision to use adult mosquito control application by aircraft
is based on surveillance information and the documentation of WNV
activity at a level that indicates a threat to human health.
The application is concentrated in areas most at-risk for disease
occurrence and is conducted by certified and licensed applicators,
according to the press release.
The agency is aware of public concerns and has dedicated a page
regarding WNV on its website at www.ocvcd.org/WNVThreatGauge.
php and a frequently-asked-questions page at www.ocvcd.org/ARCFAQ.php.
The District may postpone or cancel the scheduled treatment due
to unfavorable weather conditions or other factors.
For more information, contact the Orange County Mosquito and
Vector Control District at (714) 971-2421 or (949) 654-2421, or visit

Award-winning musical “My
Fair Lady” to run Oct. 23-Nov.
8 at the Carpenter Performing
Arts Center. Single tickets go
on sale Wednesday, Sept. 16 at
noon or order now for a season

When Professor Henry Higgins bets he can transform Cockney guttersnipe Eliza Dootlittle
into a proper English lady, he
gets far more than he wagered.
One of Broadway’s most beloved
musicals, the play boasts a score
of memorable songs, including “I
Could Have Danced All Night,”
“Wouldn’t It Be Loverly?,” “Get
Me to the Church On Time” and
“The Rain in Spain.”
Based on George Bernard
Shaw’s play “Pygmalion,” “My
Fair Lady” set Broadway records
when it premiered in 1956. It
became the longest running musical in its time. The original cast
recording went on to become the
best-selling album in the country,
spending more than 300 weeks on
the charts, many of them at No. 1.
HUI
From page 10
a few poplar line dances
including the popular “Fast As
You.” When the band comes back,
they will play the song again so
everyone can dance to it.
People are welcome to bring
beverages, food and a few dollars
for a 50/50 raffle, which will be
split with the musicians. Show
up early to ensure seating. To
reserve a table for eight or more,
call event coordinator Kaye Huff
at 431-2242. Dancing is greatly
encouraged.
It was a busy summer for
Hui O Hula with 21 hula performances in August alone. Huff and
teacher Jojo Weingart thank the
dedicated dancers who took time
out of their busy schedules. This
month, the dancers and musicians
had their last big show on Labor
Day at the Long Beach Shoreline
Village. They performed nonstop
from 2-4 p.m.

GRF Weekly Dance

Linda Herman, Leo Groenveld featured at GRF dance
LW CHORALE members Eileen C. Davis and Janet Evans
hope to dream along with Perry Como at the Chorale concert
at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 19, in Clubhouse 4. The concert
will feature the music made famous by the crooner in the
1950s. Davis and Evans invite residents to join them at the
concert and stay for the Italian buffet, which will include salad
and garlic bread, spaghetti, lasagna and several desserts.
Science Discussion
Meeting is set for today at 2 p.m.
The Science Discussion Club will meet from 2-3:15 p.m., today,
Sept. 10, in Clubhouse 3, Room 3.
It is examining the history and philosophical implications of
psychology and its impact on integral science.
The club meets on the second and fourth Thursdays of the month.
There are no dues or membership requirements.
For more information, call Mark Barnett, 430-2435.
The Golden Rain Foundation
will present a free dance featuring
Leisure World’s own Linda Herman playing ballroom music. The
weekly dance starts at 7 p.m. on
Sept. 12 in Clubhouse 1.
Herman will play music from
the 1940s to 2015 and everything
in between.
Although the instrument
Herman plays looks like an accordion, it really isn’t. Digital
music synthesizers are joined together with a sound modifier that
looks like a bellows. The fancy
technology allows the player to
sound like any single instrument
or even a whole band or orchestra.
For example, the instrument
can sound like any of six bagpipes or 21 different accordions.
Herman is proud of the fact that
she uses no pre-recorded backing tracks, preferring instead to
produce every note “on-the-fly.”
She has a library of over 2,000
tunes to ensure a wide variety
of music. Featured will be the
old standards and newer dance
music. The music that Herman
performs is danceable, anchored
by the steady beat laid down by
drummer Leo Groenveld.

Happy Birthday
Music pieces written for physically challenged studied
The Korean-American Classic Music Academy (KACMA)
conducts classes from 9:30-11:30
a.m. on Thursdays, except the
first Thursday of the month, in
Clubhouse 4.
On Sept. 10 students will
hear piano performances by
physically-challenged musicians, including the Ravel Piano
Concerto for the Left Hand in D
Major. Ravel (1875-1937) was a
widely popular French composer.
The concerto was composed for
the Austrian pianist, Paul Wittgenstein, who lost his right arm
during the war. It was written to
have the same depth and texture
as a piece for both hands.
“Amazing Grace” will be
played by He Yun Choi, elbow
pianist. Ms. Choi had a accident
when she was 3 years old and lost
her right arm below the elbow.
Her mission is to give hope to
all physically challenged people.

SBIFA
Presentation will be given on Ethiopia
Many anthropologists are
predicting some of the cultures
of Ethiopia will not exist in 50
years, according to Jackie BairdBunker, a Seal Beach movie
maker. So the Seal Beach International Friendship Association
(SBIFA) is inviting the public to
explore this exciting destination
from north to south in JBB (Jackie
Baird-Bunker) Productions’
latest release, “Ethiopia – An
African Kaleidoscope.”
Ethiopia, an African nation
that has never been colonized,
offers a very different travel
experience than trips in the more
well-known African destinations
of Kenya, Tanzania, Botswana
and South Africa. There are no
large game parks teeming with
animals and guaranteed sightings
of the big five.
Instead, Ethiopia offers a diversity of sights and experiences
that will delight even the most
seasoned adventurers.
The Nile River, longest river
in the world, begins its long
journey in the northern mountains
of Ethiopia, where magnificent
stone churches have been carved
from granite. Simien Mountain
National Park is home to large
troops of Bleeding Heart Baboons
and the hiking, peak climbing,
and scenery is spectacular. In
the arid, remote Omo Valley far
to the south of Ethiopia it is possible to make contact with various
colorful ethnic tribes living as
their ancestors did 500 years ago.
Saturday markets where these
people come to buy and sell are
very colorful.
SBIFA’s dinner meeting will
be held at 6:30 p.m on Thursday,
Sept. 17, at the Mary Wilson Library Senior Center, 707 Electric
Ave., Seal Beach. The cost is
$15 for non-members or $27 for
couples; $12 for members or $22
for member couples. Students age
21 and under are $10. RSVP by
Sept. 13 with Claire Yeh, [email protected] or 431-5414.
Seats and parking are limited.
Reservations are required and
will be taken on a first-come,
first-serve basis. Pay by check or
exact amount at the door. A courtesy call is requested to cancel so
that those on the wait list may be
accommodated.
SBIFA, a Seal Beach grassroots non-profit organization,
presents programs of multicultural and travel interests and
offers the annual June Hopkins
Scholarship to a graduating
high school senior residing in
Seal Beach, Rossmoor or Los
Alamitos.

the life and vocal artistry of the legendary Maria Callas.
Born in New York of poor Greek immigrant parents, she grew up

She suffered from poor health, poverty and family problems but
through her hard work, discipline and talent, rose to become one of
the most famous and celebrated prima donna of her time.
Included will be some of her most famous arias.
From her heights, including a love affair with the notorious Greek
shipping billionaire Aristotle Onassis, she suffered a tragic end when
he rejected her to marry Jackie Kennedy. She was unable to sing and
had multiple health problems, dying alone at the age of 54.
Everyone is welcome. There are no dues or fees. For information,

It is puzzling, however, why
the character of Erronius (Jon
Rasmussen) is wearing 20thcentury basketball sneakers in
the streets of ancient Rome. It is
not clear if this is intended to be
an anachronism.
Community theater groups
need to rethink their process of
choosing their plays, musicals
and directors. They can no longer
act like Mickey and Judy and
shout let’s put on a show and
expect it to all happen magically

• There is only one valid solution to each Sudoku puzzle. The only way the puzzle can be considered solved
correctly is when all 81 boxes contain numbers and the other Sudoku rules have been followed.
• When you start a game of Sudoku, some blocks will be pre-filled for you. You cannot change these numbers in the course of the game.
• Each column must contain all of the numbers 1 through 9 and no two numbers in the same column of a
Sudoku puzzle can be the same.
• Each row must contain all of the numbers 1 through 9 and no two numbers in the same row of a Sudoku
puzzle can be the same.
• Each block must contain all of the numbers 1 through 9 and no two numbers in the same block of a
Sudoku puzzle can be the same.

Brown, Gretchen
1924-2015
Gretchen Christine Brown
born on Dec. 8, 1924, departed
the bonds of this earth on Sept.
3, 2015.
Gretchen was preceded in
death by her husband, Clyde, and
her son Kenneth.
She is survived by her two
sons James and Richard, six
grandchildren and one greatgrandchild. Her parents came to
America through Ellis Island in
1922 from Denmark and settled
in Illinois. She grew up in the
south side of Chicago and was
surrounded by a close knit Danish
community. Like so many others she moved to California after
the end of WWII, and raised her
family in Lakewood, California.
Gretchen was active in the
Eastern Star, her church and many
other activities within Leisure
World. Gretchen was known for
being quite a seamstress and frequently wore shirts and blouses
of her creation.
She lived in Leisure World
for 35 years volunteering daily in
the medical center and was often
seen pedaling her bicycle around
the community. The Golden Age
Foundation recently recognized
her with a service award commemorating her 20,000 hours of
volunteer work.
There will be no local services.
Gretchen requested that in lieu
of flowers, donations be made to
the journalism program at Port
of Los Angeles High School.
Checks should be made to POLAHS and be sent to 250 W. 5th
St., San Pedro, CA, 90731, attn.

O’Brien, Patricia
1927-2015
Patricia Bernadette O’Brien
passed peacefully on Sept. 2,
2015, at the age of 88. Her husband of 63 years, Dick, as well
as her children, relatives, close
friends, and caregivers surrounded her in her
last days.
Patricia
was born on
Feb. 2, 1927.
In Los Angeles, California,
the daughter of
Mathias and
Bernadette
Becker. She was the sister of
Ralph, George, Paul, and Rosemary. Pat grew up in the great
depression, and sometimes talked
about her humble start in life. She
said that despite the hardships, it
was a time when families were
close, all the money was shared,
and people took care of each
other.
Growing up, Pat found her
niche in academics. She was
an excellent student, and was
proud to receive a scholarship
and attend St. Mary’s Academy
in Inglewood, California. Later,
she attended Mount St. Mary’s
College in Los Angeles, where
she studied microbiology and
graduated magna cum laude.
For the rest of her life, Pat was
an active alumnus, and promoted
charitable fundraising events
throughout her life.
After college, Pat worked at
the lab of a local hospital. One day
she went to a friend’s backyard
party, and met Dick O’Brien, a
young WWII veteran. They married one year later. As newlyweds,
they built their first house on
Barlin Avenue in Lakewood, and
attended St. Pancratius Church.
Soon afterwards, the children
started to arrive. Dick started a
new job with Mattel Toys in El
Segundo. With a growing family,
they moved to the new community of Redondo Beach.
They became founding members of St. Lawrence Martyr
Church in Redondo Beach. The
church played a central role in
their marriage and their family.
They sent their eight children
through St. Lawrence Martyr
and later Bishop Montgomery
High School in Torrance. Pat
was an active member of the St.
Lawrence Guild, and had lifelong
friendships with many people in
the church.
When her youngest child was
in third grade, Pat returned to
work at Little Company of Mary
Hospital in Torrance. She worked
in the lab as a med tech. Pat loved
her work in the hospital. For 20
years, Pat became an expert at
helping people get better.
Pat and Dick moved to a
new community in Newport
Coast, California. They were
regular attendees at St. Anne’s
Church in Irvine. Pat had retired,
yet she volunteered weekly at
Irvine Regional Hospital. Her
grandchildren often visited, and
enjoyed many hours gardening
and crafting with them. She
enjoyed her gardening, knitting,
and religiously watching her L.A.
Clipper team.
Pat and Dick moved to Leisure
Obituaries
World Seal Beach in 2012. They
were blessed to have wonderful
neighbors who were so kind to
Pat in her last few years. Pat
had developed significant health
problems that would have kept
anyone else in bed; yet time after
time she rallied to get well. At
the end of her life, Pat had loving family, friends, neighbors,
and caregivers who sat with her,
shared stories, and reflected on
her long life.
Her husband, Dick, and
children, Molly Phillips, Teri
O’Brien, Catherine O’Brien,
Julie O’Brien, Tom O’Brien,
Mary Csere, Mike O’Brien, and
Eileen Andersen, are grateful for
the love and support Pat received
at this time. She will be missed
by her sons-in-law John Phillips,
Csaba Csere, and Robert Andersen, her daughter-in-law Kim, as
well as her grandchildren Ian and
Sean O’Brien, Shannon Becker
O’Brien, Madeline Csere and
Mimi Anderson.
Over the years, Pat had so
many friends that is difficult to list
them here. As she transitioned,
and could no longer speak, the
family sat with her and shared
story after story of those earlier
times. It gave her great comfort.
At the time she passed, she said
was ready to join her family and
friends that went before.
Pat wanted academic opportunities for all children. In
lieu of flowers, a donation to St.
Mary’s Academy in Inglewood,
California, would please Pat immeasurably.
Her life will be celebrated with
a funeral mass on Sept. 12 at 10
a.m. at St. Pancratius Catholic
Church, 3519 St. Pancratius
Place, in Lakewood.
