Key to the City Recipient 

Antoinette Hewlett moved from Stockton to the newly built Del Webb Senior Community in Elk Grove in 2008 after her husband of 52 years passed away, to be closer to her daughter, Laurel Speier who moved here in 1990. She was very active in all the social activities Del Webb had to offer. At 90 years old, she was still playing cards and was able to hop on a treadmill in the gym for 30 minutes without breaking a sweat. A favorite customer of Trader Joes, they have been recognizing her birthday with flowers and chocolate for 10 years.
