Remembering Kitty Monahan With FOSTP by Ronald Horii
Kitty Monahan was a founding member of the Friends of Santa Teresa Park. She passed away at home just after midnight on July 25, 2022. She served at FOSTP's Vice President for many years, until she was unable to continue because of her health. She was a long-term volunteer with the Santa Clara County Parks. She accumulated 14,000 lifetime volunteer hours with the County Parks. In 2014, she received the Lifetime Presidential Volunteer Award for her work with the parks. She volunteered with many park, open space, and historic preservation groups. She was a founder and President of the New Almaden Quicksilver County Park Association. On 5/21/22, she was awarded the Preservation Lifetime Achievement Award from the Santa clara County Preservation Alliance. She also received a commendation from the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors. Here's a biography of Kitty from 2018: https://www.livingalmadenhistory.com/post/kitty-monahan.
