Jim Lamb passed away on March 31, 2010, in Sedona, Arizona. He and his wife had recently moved there to be closer to his daughter.
Jim was a tireless worker for teacher benefits, both as an active teacher as well as a member of CalRTA. He was the vice president of membership for Division 45 for many years. He took registrations for lunch and greeted all the members when they arrived.
He had a wonderful sense of humor and a great smile.
He will be missed.

Community Service

Kathy O'Leary Message on Membership and Service
Division 45 represents an important part of California, in the north coastal area of San Diego County. Many members who have retired in this region of the state continue to keep a close eye on legislative activities that could have a major impact on current and future retired teachers.
Our members are also very involved in community service. In the most recent reporting cycle, members donated over 46,000 hours of their time in volunteer activities, worth several thousand dollars saved by local, and state government.
We act as a resource for new teachers, offering many skills and services that they can request.
We are in a consortium with Division 63 & Division 81 to present scholarships to north county colleges, students pursuing careers in education.
We are proud of the members of our division, with good reason.
If you are interested in joining CalRTA and live within the Division 45 region, please be sure to attend a luncheon in our local division. We meet the 4th Monday of each month at the St. Michael's Church in Oceanside, at 11:00 a.m. It will be a great opportunity to renew acquaintances and make new ones.
