In Memory of Beth Woo (1915-2017)

For women's history month, read this life of Beth Woo (1915-2017), American-born child of immigrants to California from China.

What courage, what contributions!  

World War II interrupted her life in many ways--she ended up in China for most of it-- but she survived with courage.

She volunteered with the Asian Pacific Family Center.

Her son Mike served on the LA City Council 1985-93.

Her daughter Elaine is a writer for the Los Angeles Times.

Praise to God for this beautiful life!
