1924 - 2021

It is with great sadness for our lodge
as we said farewell to our beloved
member. Ernie lived his entire life in
Napa, a community he loved dearly.
He was an active member of the Napa
community, a life-long member of St.
John's Catholic Church, served as a
member of the City Council from
1966-1973, and actively participated
in our Napa lodge for over 55 years as
well as many other organizations
within the community. Until we meet
again, we will miss your presence
Ernie.

 

Ann McLaughlin

Ann had been a member of our lodge
for close to 30 years, she became an
officer, attending meetings, dances,
prepping and cooking for the Napa
fair booth. Ann and her beloved
husband Mike were our Sunshine
Committee for years, visiting those
who were hospitalized or home
bound. They also brought donated
donuts to residents at the Veterans
Home in Yountville twice weekly, and
stayed for coffee and conversation
with our veterans. Until we meet
again dear friend.
