Bill Daley's Hummer: gone, but not forgotten!


A TRIBUTE TO WILLIAM AND DOROTHY DALEY:

About three years ago, there was a new arrival at the Marbella home of William and Dorothy Daley. It was a bright yellow Hummer given to Bill on his birthday by one of the Daley’s three sons (two of whom are San Diego attorneys). I instinctively smiled each time I saw Bill driving his birthday present. I thought it was bright enough to glow in the dark. I admired Bill’s youthful spirit, and thought he set a good example in a community of individuals 55 years of age or older. Although Bill has recently sold his Hummer, it lives on in the memories of every Marbella resident who saw it. I thought it deserved a place in the Marbella Spectator. (Click on the photos of the Daleys and Hummer for enlargement).

As many people living in Oaks North know, Dorothy Daley is a friendly and lively person who has served for years on the Oaks North Community Center Architectural Committee for Houses. She is also a member of the Oaks North Ceramics Club. Dottie is a very creative person, and she produces museum quality masterpieces, some of which resemble Egyptian artifacts she and Bill have seen in their trips around the world. I do not know if she sells her works of art, but I am confident that she could command high prices for them.

If you believe age is a state of mind, look for more surprises from the Daleys in the years to come. They are truly young at heart.
