Mildred Maasland
December 18th, 1931 – June 26th, 2021

It is with great sadness that we inform Club members of the passing of Mildred Maasland, a long time Lawn Bowler and valued member of the Club.  She served several years as Club president and it was under her leadership that the Croquet Section was started at the Club.

Mildred’s pride and joy at the Club was the garden. She organized members to help, showing them what was required to maintain the high standard. When Mildred’s son Paul passed away his friends held a fund raiser on his behalf.  Mildred had the Rose of Sharon trees planted at the Club as a Memorial to him. One can not  be present at the Club without thinking of the garden and what Mildred contributed to its beauty.

Mildred was a wonderful lady with many talents. She will be deeply missed by all of us.
