Fw: Upcoming events

[Amber Huaxia]

Dear all,

This is the transitional event to show our respect to our ancestors.   A lot of our Chinese Pioneers in Riverside did not have their own children  because of the immigration policy in the old days. They made  great contributions to our community and our country.  Today is the  time to remember them.

Hope you could join us.

Thanks.

Amber
