It is with a heavy heart that we share the devasta It is with a heavy heart that we share the devastating news that our dear friend and fellow Rotarian, Mike Mason, passed away in his sleep over the weekend.
 
Mike truly embodied the spirit of Rotary, serving selflessly, enthusiastically, and generously in all that he did. His genuine kindness and compassion will be deeply missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him and serving alongside him. He played an integral role in shaping our club into what it is today, having served as President as we merged with the former Temecula Valley - New Generations club, and holding various positions on our Board. No matter the project or task at hand, Mike always rolled up his sleeves to help out, with a smile on his face. We most recently saw his giving spirit in action at the Temecula Community Christmas Dinner, where he, Cindy, and his daughter spent the day serving meals and delivering holiday cheer.

We ask that you please keep his family in your thoughts and prayers. 🕊️
