Justin Tyme Noren - Secretaryjustin@alandfriends.orgJustin Tyme Noren and his family have been living on the Monterey Peninsula since 2009. Justin and Al met the first time when Al knocked on his door and told a quick, inspiring story. Al was very genuine and Justin believed him. As Justin gave Al a donation, Al encouraged him to come to the breakfast to see what it was all about. It was a wonderful gathering of energetic folks cooking up a storm of delicious food for some grateful people. The newly assembled Board of Directors needed a Secretary of the Board and Justin could not refuse the call. Justin is a local real estate agent. |
