Joan B. Lee
Joan LeeJoan Lee was a National Gray Panther Board Member but that was only a part of her story as her commitment went way beyond that. She was the Liaison to the Gray Panthers of California and Convenor of the Gray Panthers of Sacramento. Joan worked relentlessly to archive solutions for the inequities and injustices of this world. She was truly a living legend. We mourn her passing and celebrate her full and selfless life.

The family has suggested donations be given to the Gray Panthers in Joan's memory. You can donate online (There's a section where you can enter Joan's name.) or checks can be sent to the National Office.
