Jaramillo was president of the history club between 2011 and 2014 and is currently a volunteer marriage counselor at St. Mary’s Church. She also works regularly at St. Luke’s Food Pantry. “Jubie instilled a sense of volunteering in her children and grandchildren, beginning with family volunteering at Loaves and Fishes,” Martin Melehan said. Also honored was Lions club past president Carol Musser. Her peers wrote, “Carol is the epitome of the Lions’ slogan, ‘We serve,’ and the Los Gatos Lions are proud to make this known to the community.” When Musser joined the Lions 27 years ago, she became the club’s first female member. Since then she’s worked on numerous Lions’ projects, including a car raffle that’s raised more than $1 million over 25 years. She was also a founding board member of the Los Gatos Education Foundation.

Not an easy task. Klein says, “It’s a giant set, so it’s been a little challenging to fit into our theater something that is meant for a stage about twice the size of ours. But we’ve done a good job with that.”. Perez says, “This is one of the hardest shows I’ve ever had to put together. It’s so beautifully constructed in that the musical elements and the choreography and the dramatic elements are so interwoven in ways I hadn’t experienced before. And I’ve worked on some other difficult pieces, like ‘Miss Saigon.’ But this piece never stops moving. The ensemble is used to thread throughout, with dance movement, so the scenes and the dances and the music all continually blend into one another.”.
