Volunteering for nearly thirty years for the preservation and promotion of Menlo Park history is an amazing accomplishment and committment to the City and the community. Congratulations are certainly in order. I imagine few citizens can match this amazing accomplishment. Menlo Park is fortunate to have this "go to" guy available to the general public that has personally witnessed nearly 83 years of Menlo Park activity.
