Joe Stern

 

Memories from Sarah:

After Nixon became president, Joe started volunteering five days a week at the Downtown Senior Center.  He was in charge of income maintenance and became known as a fierce advocate for his many clients.

Subsequently he was appointed to the first advisory board of the newly-formed Area Agency on Aging.  I started Senior Enterprises, now known as “ElderHelp.”

He also started writing a column for the San Diego Evening Tribute called “Aging with Dignity.”
