Heartbroken to lose Mike Welch, we commemorate his fascinating life and commitment to Service.
Mike joined Hermosa Beach Rotary in 2012 after attending a meeting to honor his son Andrew, who was named Student of the Month. He was so very proud of his family and his community. Mike had many talents and served in a variety of capacities to manage the building rentals in addition to holding the position of both secretary and treasurer for several years.
Mike was an active board member for many years with the Vietnam Veterans Association Chapter 53 and in addition was the collaborator for our club with other local Vietnam Veterans who created and maintained the Memorial at the Hermosa Beach Community Center.
A frequent speaker, Mike shared stories about his worldwide travels, including family treks to Australia, moreover his remarkable career with the U.S. Air Force CMSgt (ret) Mike M. Welch, and Boeing, as a “pathfinder loadmaster”. C-17s have played a vital role of delivering military personnel and equipment and often critical support to deliver humanitarian aid, especially in dire situations like the 2012 Haiti earthquake.
Eagle Scout is the highest rank attainable in the Scouting program (BSA). A Scout who attains this rank is called an Eagle Scout or Eagle. Since its introduction in 1911, the Eagle Scout rank has been earned by more than two million young people, however, nationally, only about 7% achieve it.
On March 30 we will meet four honorees from Hermosa Beach Troop 860 who have achieved this remarkable achievement. See more detail below.
