It is with deepest sadness that we relay the following news: after a long battle with cancer, Mona Greenberg passed away peacefully in her sleep yesterday afternoon.

Mona was an important and influential SMBC administrator in the mid-1990's and played a major role in the rise of SMBC Girls as a regional and national club volleyball powerhouse.

She was instrumental in making the Volleyball Festival in Reno the tremendously enjoyable experience it remains to this day (she helped pioneer the SMBC Talent Show and Barbeque and was one of the negotiators on the original contract between SMBC and the Hilton Hotel, now the Grand Sierra Resort, which remains in place even now.

Mona is survived by her daughter Rachel (SMBC Class of 2002, Santa Clara University), her son and her husband. In the name of the entire Santa Monica Beach Club family, we extend our deepest heart-felt condolences to the Greenberg Family.

Thank you for so many great memories and we will miss you, Mona.
