Dental Hygiene Students
Hold Kids Clinic
On August 24, SRJC’s Dental Hygiene Clinic served
22 children from The Children’s Village of Sonoma
County ranging from 5 to 18 years. Second year
Dental Hygiene students provided preventative
dental care, including dental cleanings, fluoride
varnish treatments, and dental screenings. The
children who took part in the clinic live at The
Children’s Village, a planned multigenerational
community where children live with foster parents or
staff in family-style homes. There are also apartments
for surrogate grandparents. The goal of The Children’s
Village is to keep siblings together and provide a
stable environment for the children.

Bridging the Doyle
Through Community Support
For Student Scholarships at SRJC!
With the temporary loss of the Doyle Scholarship in 2008, many students who
deserve awards will not receive scholarship funds to attend Santa Rosa Junior
A Legacy
Beyond
Measure
“...to establish
scholarships for
worthy young
men and women
attending
Santa Rosa
Junior College...”
College. Until the Doyle Scholarship is restored, the help of the Sonoma County
community is badly needed to help 2,000 deserving high school seniors - Class of
2009 - to attend SRJC this fall.
For six decades more than $76 million from the Frank P. Doyle Trust provided
Doyle Scholarships to over 120,000 SRJC students. To continue this remarkable
legacy, we urge you to be a part of the “Bridging the Doyle” campaign so the
dreams of our graduates do not disappear.
Frank P. Doyle
When you join with members of our community to send your donation, the combined
funds will create scholarships for thousands of SRJC students. Mail your check to:

On behalf of the college
community, we extend our
condolences to District Police
Officer David Willat whose
mother Aileen Patricia
Willat passed away on August
23 at age 80. “She was known
as a noble, optimistic, vibrant,
strong yet tender woman and
endeared herself to others with
her thoughtfulness, generosity
and public service. Her energy and
sense of humor, even in the face
of illness, served as an example to
those around her,” David said of
his mother. Pat is survived by her
husband of 63 years Forest, their
son David and daughter-in law
Linda, and grandson Ryan Willat, all
residents of Santa Rosa. The family
requests that in lieu of flowers,
donations be made in Pat’s name
to the Novato Historical Guild (75
Rowland Way, #200, Novato 94945)
or St. Paul’s Episcopal Church
(Mission and Court St., San Rafael).
