By Our Members, for Our Members


Villages flourish when each and every member contributes their time, energy and life experience to fellow Villagers. We derive great satisfaction in knowing we are making our communities a better place.

GNV is deeply grateful to Villager Patty Allen for bringing her time, talent, and life experience while serving as Member at Large on the Board of Directors, as leader of the Book Club, and as co-leader of the Memoir Writers Group with Jan Quilici. Patty’s warmth makes any conversation with her a moment of positivity. She can always be counted on to provide carefully deliberated input in meetings, and at least one perfectly timed non sequitur that gets everyone laughing. Her love for learning and language inspires us, and her gracious hospitality is evident each time she welcomes Villagers to GNV events at her home.

Thank you, Patty, for your many contributions to making Greater Niles Village effective at fostering connections among members and organizing practical support when members need assistance. We will miss you so very much. You remain an inspiration as we continue to create a community that can navigate the challenges and opportunities of aging better, together.

Want to get involved?

Email us at info@greaternilesvillage.org or call 510-458-7357 to learn more.
