Because so many of you responded to our Light the Lights Campaign, we can look forward to the day when we can again gather in the Playhouse. We've been busy planning our 2021 season, and we'll be announcing those plans very soon. We think you will be excited about what we have in store. For those of you who haven't had a chance to make an investment in our future, won't you please consider making a gift today? Under the CARES Act, taxpayers who don't itemize deductions may take a charitable deduction of up to $300 for cash contributions made in 2020. And taxpayers age 70 ½ or older can make a qualified charitable distribution from their IRA – up to $100,000 – directly to an eligible charity. (Of course, please check with your tax advisor to determine your own tax situation.) Please consider including Sierra Madre Playhouse as a part of your 2020 year-end giving. From all of us at Sierra Madre Playhouse - Good Riddance 2020 and Happy New Year, 2021! Sierra Madre lost another of its' treasures this week when Frank Hall, 84 passed away after a long illness. Frank who is best known among his friends for his 'wonderful smile' and infectious laugh' was a compassionate man and a generous fundraiser and volunteer. In addition to being Sierra Madre Rotary Club, Rotarian of the Year, he was a Trustee of the Sierra Madre Library, and he also served on the Board of Mater Dolorosa. Born in Bakersfield, California, he graduated from the University of Southern California and ran a major insurance brokerage company. He was the founder of Frank R. Hall and Associates, consultants in Philantropic Support for Non-Profit Organizations. He also taught at UC Irvine. He literally raised millions of dollars for hospitals and non profits all over the country. Frank is survived by his wife, Patricia, his son John Hall (Annabell), and daughter Julie Whitmer (Scott), and grandson Drew Whitmer. He was preceded in death by daughter Janine Hall. In lieu of flowers we’d like to suggest donations to one of the following organizations that my father loved and supported…. • City of Hope, Duarte, California • Thomas Aquinas College, Santa Paula, California • Carmelite Sisters of the Most Sacred Heart of Los Angeles. A Memorial Service will be announced in the future. REMEMBRANCE JEFF MCGUIRE Jeffery Allen McGuire was born in Sierra Madre on April 17, 1959. He was 61 years old when he lost his battle against the covid 19 virus. Jeff liked being his own boss, finding the trucking business much to his liking. He was an extremely caring person, giving much time and effort to causes he felt needed his help. He loved hiking, being a regular on Mt. Wilson Trail. Jeff cherished and coddled his dogs, taking them everywhere with him including First Water. Jeff found out he had a super ability to run long distances by accident one day when he decided to see how far he could run up the MW trail. He ended up having to carry his exhausted dog Penny, (65lbs) miles back home, and suffering from bloody worn-out paws. Jeff entered Sierra Madre’s famous Mt. Wilson Trail Race several times, finishing high in the upper class standings. Jeff’s mom, Jackie Bryson Zapp McGuire passed away in 2015 and he is survived only by his lifelong partner, Rosalva, his older brother's family Michael and Christin Zapp, Tyler and Tia. Also of great importance to Jeff is his adopted niece, Mykenzi. Anyone who would like to send their condolences/ donations can do so at Sierra Madre Community Foundation Fletcher Fund, PO Box 716 SM Ca. 91025 (This fund maintains our local hiking trails).
