West Endowment Fellowship | | |  | A Scout Salute for all the time, talent and treasure you share on behalf of our Scouts! Would you consider joining the James E. West Endowment Fellowship in 2016? | Ralph Waldo Emerson observed that “an institution is the lengthened shadow of one man” Today, Scouting is the “lengthened shadow” of the farseeing and dedicated leadership provided by Dr. James E. West. In 1910, James E. West became the first Chief Scout Executive of the Boy Scouts of America, and he served in that position for more than three decades. The James E. West Fellowship Award is available for gifts of $1,000 and up in cash or marketable securities to the Council Endowment Fund. The gift must be in addition to and not replace or diminish the donor’s annual Friends of Scouting support. Many individuals and corporations make these gifts either on behalf of someone else, such as in honor of an Eagle Scout, Silver Beaver recipient, a retirement, a special accomplishment, or anniversary or in memory of a special individual. If an institution is truly “the lengthened shadow of one man,” it is more than fitting that the BSA honor James E. West’s monumental contributions to Scouting in such a significant way. Please support our California Inland Empire Council!
What a great way to close out the old and ring in a great 2016! You may designate a family member, Scout or Scouter as a Memorial or Tribute as well.

Jack H. Brown, executive chairman of Stater Bros. Markets and charitable leader throughout the region, died Sunday evening surrounded by family. He was 78. Neither the cause nor the location of his death was known, Stater Bros. officials said. “Grief is not a strong enough word to describe what the Stater Bros. ‘Family’ feels,” Stater Bros. President and CEO Pete Van Helden said in a statement. “Jack touched every one of us in a very personal way, and it is that legacy that we must carry forward. He loved the business, his company and each one of us.” Brown joined Stater Bros. in 1981. He served as president and chief executive officer of Stater Bros. Markets for more than 35 years and as chairman for Stater Bros. for more than 30 years. Under his leadership, Stater Bros. grew to 169 stores with gross sales last year reaching $4.5 billion. It was late last year that Brown stepped down as chief executive officer and took the role of executive chairman. Brown, a native of San Bernardino, was known for his charitable work on behalf of the community. He was a model citizen when it came to his employees, his customers and his community, said Carl Dameron, who works closely with The Salvation Army of San Bernardino and other groups that he said benefited from the generosity of Stater Bros.
“Jack Brown’s death is a great loss to our community,” Dameron said. “He was someone who believed in the best of us and he contributed to our economic welfare, our social welfare and he’s also a person who constantly said positive things. He upped the morale of our community.” Brown was passionate about San Bernardino. “He could have moved the home base for Stater Bros. out of the Inland Empire, to Orange County or anywhere else, and he didn’t,” Dameron said. “He recommitted to here.” Over the years, Stater Bros. donated more than half a million dollars in cash donations and hundreds of thousands of pounds in food donations, said Maj. Dan Henderson, who leads the Salvation Army of San Bernardino.“We couldn’t do what we do without them,” Henderson said. “I wish them not only comfort in this time of loss but also that they take the time to distill Jack’s vision and his passion for the city of San Bernardino and decide how that’s going to carry forward into the future.” District Attorney Michael A. Ramos knows Brown will be missed by many, “but his legacy will live on. “He was always such a strong advocate for public safety and our community as a whole,” Ramos said. As chairman of Stater Bros. Charities, Brown honored San Bernardino Police Chief Jarrod Burguan and the department’s first responders in March with an award for their bravery and heroism, as well as a $50,000 donation to the department, after the Dec. 2 terrorist attack. Brown was born and raised along San Bernardino’s stretch of Route 66, and grew up to be a beloved philanthropist. In 2008 he established Stater Bros. Charities, which supports a variety of charitable organizations in the community, from Redlands’ annual Believe Walk for Inland women fighting cancer to The Salvation Army in San Bernardino.
Brown was a founder of the Boys and Girls Club of San Bernardino and the founding chairman of Children’s Fund of San Bernardino County. His well-known community involvement embraced San Bernardino’s car culture, and Stater Bros. Markets became the title sponsor of the Route 66 Rendezvous from 1997 and 2013. A proud veteran, Brown was fiercely patriotic, having served on active duty with the Pacific Fleet of the U.S. Navy during the Vietnam era. Brown’s support of the military and the nation’s veterans remains unprecedented, showcasing memorabilia honoring squadrons from the former Norton Air Force Base at the Stater Bros. corporate offices at San Bernardino International Airport. In 2004, he received the Friend of the Veteran Award from the Riverside National Cemetery’s Veterans’ Advisory Committee for his continued support of volunteer services to veterans and their families. Brown also received the Patriot Award in 2011, the highest award the Congressional Medal of Honor Society can bestow upon an individual. In addition, Brown was one of 10 Distinguished Americans to receive the 1992 “Horatio Alger Award” in Washington, D.C. in recognition of his outstanding contributions to America and the “American Dream.” Brown received many awards for his contributions to the supermarket industry. Most recently, the California State University Board of Trustees named the Jack H. Brown College of Business and Public Administration for him at Cal State San Bernardino in July.“His leadership and philanthropy have been a benchmark for others to follow, creating countless opportunities for economic and social growth at every level of his organization,” Cal State San Bernardino President Tomás D. Morales said, in an email. “His commitment to the values and sacrifices of those that served our country in the military was unwavering. He championed education, children’s well-being, hunger relief, health, and help for our nation’s veterans.” Brown is survived by his wife, Debbie, three daughters; J. Kathleen Smith (Michael Smith), Cara Hoffman (Scott Hoffman) and Melissa Koss (Pete Koss). He had seven grandchildren, Kaitlyn, Colleen, Caden, Dylan, Julianna, Jack Ryan and Emma. His burial will be private, for family only, with a memorial to follow at a later date, according to the statement. By MICHEL NOLAN / STAFF WRITER

-------------------------------- Thanksgiving Day is one of my favorite holidays. Well, actually, I have never met a holiday I didn’t like! But think about it, a whole day to give thanks for God, Family, Country and all my friends and fellow Scouts and Scouters. A whole day to remember all those who serve our country and our communities. A whole day to be one with those are hungry and homeless. A whole day to comfort those who mourn, who are in despair. Lord, be with me each and every day and help me give thanks to you every day! Help me remember well my family, friends and my Country. Help me salute all the men and women in our Armed Forces, Law Enforcement and Fire. Help me feed the hungry and take care of the homeless. Be with me to comfort those who mourn and are in despair. A very Happy Thanksgiving tomorrow and all days, every day! Joe Daniszewski~ Scout Executive
