Ann Wolff sent a note of thanks to the club for our memorial gift to the Lions Gift of Sight in memory of Steve Wolff.  She said, “Steve has always valued the mission of Lions and that was long before he developed two serious eye conditions, and now, to be remembered with two tribute gifts.  He was very proud of the Helen Keller Award.”
