Swingin’ at the Savoy: Sinatra Style
On a perfect late summer evening in September, a standing room
only crowd of 160 guests from Bayview and the broader community
delighted in a memorable second annual Swingin’ at the Savoy Gala.
Bayview’s 1st floor was transformed into an elegant supper club
atmosphere during the mid-century heyday of Sinatra with Count
Basie and The Rat Pack. Guests enjoyed fine food and company. They
filled the dance floor, cutting a rug to favorites like Luck Be a Lady
Tonight, Mack the Knife, and New York, New York. The capstone of
the evening was a video presentation featuring Bayview residents
testifying to the rich heritage and caring community that makes
Bayview the special place they call home.

June David's Legacy
June David lived at Bayview from 2009 until she passed away
in early 2015. Later in 2015, Bayview was notified that June had
made a bequest to Bayview through her will, leaving a legacy to
benefit the lives of fellow residents for years to come.
1923-2015
From her birth in Lapeer, Michigan in 1923 to
her death, June is remembered by her family
and loved ones as “a fiercely independent and
loving woman who made it in this world her
way.” Her high school yearbook commented,
“she can dance, she can sing, she can turn a
handspring, and climb a sycamore tree.” She
distinguished herself as a newspaper editor, in
chorus, band and orchestra, as well as theater
productions.
After moving to Seattle in 1960, June spent the
bulk of her career at Boeing, retiring in 1988 as
Executive Assistant to then President and Vice
President of the Board, Malcolm Stamper. She
had several adopted grandchildren and great
grandchildren who affectionately called her
“June Babes.”
June lived alone most of her adult life, and though Valuing her privacy, she found
community at Bayview. She is remembered by friends and staff as sweet, loving, kind, and
spunky. She had a great sense of humor. She loved music, and rarely missed a Tuesday
night jam session. She also loved dogs who came to Bayview, and those dogs loved her.
But most of all, June came to love the people of Bayview who were all her friends. She
was very grateful for the community, the staff and the lo ving care and attentiveness she
experienced at Bayview.
We honor her and the legacy of her generosity.
GiveBIG Got Bigger!
Generosity overflowed as Bayview’s residents and friends stepped up big
time in support of Bayview’s third GiveBIG Day, carried out in partnership
with the Seattle Foundation. Because of you, we raised a total of $34,800,
double the total raised in 2014! All donations went to support the mission
of the Bayview Manor Foundation. A huge thank you to everyone who gave
for being a Bayview champion! Bayview residents and friends are invited
to give to the Foundation throughout the year. And in 2016, plans are being
made for a giving drive of Bayview's own.

residents traveled to Mary’s Place headquarters to present a check, tour the
facilities, and greet participants whom they had met at the bazaar.
Mary’s Place has been a long-time partner with Bayview and the
opportunity to talk with women of Mary’s Place has begun to deepen our
relationships. Who knows what possibilities will emerge in the future, as
persons from different worlds begin to speak and listen to one another, new
