AUBURN DAYS PIONEER QUEEN SHIRLEY MARCH

• Born in Bemidji, Minnesota, Shirley March has had a fascinating life.

• Shirley was ten when her father was killed in a typhoon in South Pacific.

• Shirley remembers going with her mom to get help for the eight children.

• Her mother became ill and an aunt that already had nine children took her in.

• Shirley came out west and married at seventeen.

She raised all six of her children in Carmichael near Sacramento, California.

• Shirley was the founder of a special needs Cub Scout group when her oldest son that had cerebral palsy was eight.

• She and another scoutmaster formed one den of physically challenged children and one den for children with emotional and mental challenges.

• She also was a leader for Campfire Girls, Brownies and Girl Scouts.

• After a time of being single, Shirley remarried and inherited 3 more children. She raised five teenage boys at the same time.

• She is the president of the Activity Club at Leisure Manor.

• She ushers at the Auburn Performing Arts Center and Auburn Ave Theater.

• She does security and interviews for the Miss Auburn Scholarship Pageant.

• Auburn Days Pioneer Queen March collects eye glasses as part of her Auburn Noon Lions Club duties.

• Her dream is be able to go to the foreign countries to see the end result of the work of the club. Just to be able to meet the mother that gets to see her baby for the first time would be a lifelong fulfillment.

• She likes to travel, read and sew wedding and bridesmaid dresses for her family.

• She recently had her 19th great grandchild and has 18 grand kids.

When asked about her reign, she says she is having fun, couldn’t believe she won and that her son couldn’t believe she was speechless… What a great lady! Swims at the YMCA.

• He married his wife, Leila and did his good work in a new capacity.

• Auburn Youth Resources was looking for a director and hired him on the spot. This decision changed so many young lives for good.

Thank you Leila!

• A short time later, when Dick was 47, Josh was born. Jessie came along when Dick was 50.

• As director of AYR he was the driving source creating several shelters and programs to assist “at risk” youth.

• AYR is still on F St and was joined with a neighboring property. It is now called The Brugger Building.

• Dick is a member and past officer of the Kiwanis Club of Auburn.

• January 1, 2012, as the first City of Auburn Poet Laureate. Dick hopes that this three year honor will encourage the love and understanding of poetry in Auburn citizens.
