Club’s Cherished 105 Year Old Member Has Passed and Will Be Missed

GFWC Lutz-Land O’Lakes Woman’s Club was very saddened to learn of the recent passing of its most senior member, June Gregg, in her beloved hometown of Bainbridge, Ohio at the venerable age of 105. Ms. Gregg, who never married, joined the GFWC Federation in Ohio 58 years ago and joined GFWC Lutz-Land O’Lakes club in 1979. Although in her later years, June moved back to her hometown, she never lost touch with our club, continued to communicate with us, subscribed to our community papers and generously supported our projects. The Woman’s Club honored Ms. Gregg with Emeritus status several years ago and will mourn the passing of a most exceptional woman of her time.
