Bertina Marcelo & Jerry Hill 2015

Bertina Marcelo was recognized as the ‘Quiet Hero of the 13th Senate District’ by California State Senator Jerry Hill.

South San Francisco resident Bertina Marcelo was honored by California State Senator Jerry Hill this morning as a ‘Quiet Hero’ during an event hosted by Java with Jerry at the new Antiqua Coffee Shop on Grand Avenue. It was standing room only as officials, including Mayor Rich Garbarino and Vice Mayor Mark Addiego (pictured), and neighbors packed the house for this meet and greet event with Senator Hill. Only a handful of people knew of the special occasion in which the Senator would recognize Bertina as a Quiet Hero of the 13th Senate District. Everything South City joins in congratulating Bertina and the much deserved accolades bestowed upon her this morning.
