What a pair they are and how much they have contributed, not just to OLLI, but to all who have been lucky enough to know them! They were fun to be with and always willing to be helpful. David’s interests and skills include photography, things mechanical, computers, travel, art, and people. Jean’s leadership in the organization and running of the OLLI office is well known. They are appreciated, loved, and will be sorely missed.

To Jean and David - Thank you so much for everything you did for Senior University (now known as OLLI at CSULB) and for me personally. I always knew where to go when a problem needed solving. I wish you the best of everything in your new life.
~ Diana Rodriguez
Jean and Dave helped lay the cornerstone of Senior University/OLLI. They were vital to the birth and growth of our volunteer program and computer lab. And they did it all with heart and humor.
~ Judy Mednick
Their last name belies the highs we all experienced at the farewell party for our Lowes.
~ Dolores Volpe
Dave, thank you for showing me that there aren’t many situations that can’t use a smile and a good joke and that everything doesn’t have to be alphabetized all the time.
~ Karin Covey
You two have shared your wit and wisdom with so many. May God be with you.
~ Marjorie and Rob Rivera
Dave and Jean have a Dutch son-in-law. This fully explains why they get along so wonderfully with all kinds of strange people.
~ Max Slegers
My, what big shoes to fill!

~Don Friedman
Jean and David, enjoy each day in your new 
home. I wish you the best of health and much joy. I will always miss you.
~ Much love, Sylvia Manheim
One of the special fringe benefits of OLLI at CSULB is the opportunity to meet warm, interesting, provocative people like you. We have had the privilege of working with you for several years and developing a close friendship based on admiration, affection and respect. Thank you Jean and Dave; we truly value your friendship. Wishing you all the best.
~ Syd Benowitz and Lee Freilich
Jean is the reason I came to Senior University as a volunteer and a big part of all the reasons why I’ve stayed so long. Because of her, I’ve met dozens of people in the last eight years who have enriched my life with laughter, knowledge, friendship and, sometimes, bewilderment. It has been a pleasure to work beside her through the years.
