Our longtime member, Carl Hillberg, passed away on May 30, 2025. He joined our club in 1952, was president in 1961-62, was just a couple months short of his 103rd birthday, and the oldest Rotarian in District 5220. A lifetime resident of Turlock, he grew up on a farm just outside of town. After graduating from Turlock High School, he attended Modesto Junior College where he completed an A.A. degree in accounting. Shortly later he was drafted into the Army where, because of his accounting expertise, was stationed in India to help manage supply logistics for the China Burma India Theater of World War II. He later graduated from Cal Berkeley before starting a very successful accounting firm in Turlock. He was a dedicated and true Rotarian who generously gave his time, energy and money to a number of civic activities. Two of his sons are current Rotarians. Ron is a member of Turlock Sunrise Rotary and Ron is a member and past president of our club.
