In June
2009 the PASDA Board of Trustees were saddened to report that
Jeffrey Mace passed away. Jeffrey had been ill for some time,
although it may not have been apparent, given his continued level
of involvement in PASDA activities in front of and behind the
scene. Jeffrey had generously served as our PASDA Officials’
Trustee for as long as many of us have known him.
With Jeffrey’s passing the PASDA and swimming communities have
lost someone who has devoted a major portion of his life to our
children. Jeffrey will be missed by all who have known him as
a friend, mentor, or acquaintance, and most certainly of all,
by his family.
The Mace family indicated that donations could be made to the
World Wildlife Fund in memory of Jeffrey. Thank you to all who
have
offered their condolences and support in any manner.
In furtherance of the goals and ideals that Jeffrey held, the
PASDA community overwhelmingly agreed that the annual PASDA swimming
championship meet be named in honor of Jeffrey. Beginning with
the 2010 season, the membership directed that the annual PASDA
swimming championship be designated the
Jeffrey S Mace Memorial PASDA Swimming Championships
Among the many concepts and attributes Jeffrey conveyed to the
thousands of swimmers, parents and volunteers he influenced across
the decades, some are:
- inclusion of all who wished to participate
- nurturing the development of young &/or inexperienced
swimmers
- good sportsmanship
- spirited competition
- the virtues of volunteerism
Jeffrey expressed these by way of discussion, instruction
and most of all, by example. We strive to continue the effort.
