Just announced by the Alki Community Council board:
To members of the Alki Community Council and the West Seattle Community:
It is with deep sorrow we mourn the passing of Jule Sugarman, President of the Alki Community Council yesterday, Tuesday, November 2, 2010, at about 3 PM, after a brief illness.
Jule’s Memorial Service will be on Saturday, November 20, 2010, at 2 PM. More details will follow.
Mr. Sugarman was first elected as president of the Alki Community Council in March 2008; that’s when we took the photo at left. As noted at the time, he had a long history of work in government and nonprofits, including running the nationwide Head Start program for its first five years, and serving as our state’s Secretary of Social and Health Services. Mr. Sugarman was 83 years old. His passing also is announced on the Facebook page of the Westside Unitarian Universalist Congregation, of which he is a past president; he and his wife Candace were major donors to the campaign to fund the recent WSUU church purchase. That’s where his memorial will be held November 20th.
