Our member Mell McDonnell passed away on September 25, 2025. More details later.

In honor of and in memory of Mell McDonnell’s long-time leadership as Garden Committee Chair and Co-chair, a Mell McDonnell Memorial Garden Fund has been established with the initial “seed money” (pun intended) coming from Gail Beaton, Nan O’Neal Campbell, and Barbara Wright. This fund will be used for periodic garden expenses such as tree pruning and disease abatement. Any member who wishes to contribute to this memorial fund may do so by donating on the club’s website and designating the funds to The Mell Memorial. Click here to donate. Or write a check and mail it to the clubhouse at 1325 Logan St., Denver, CO 80203.
