Joan and Jack McGraw
Distinguished Leadership Award
The San Francisco American Ireland Fund is most pleased to present Joan and Jack McGraw with The Distinguished Leadership Award. The McGraws are pioneers in the insurance business, generous and thoughtful supporters of education and treasured friends of the Fund.
Long time peninsula residents, Jack and Joan are the devoted parents of John, Ann and Michael and proud grandparents of eight girls and one boy. The McGraws trace their Irish roots to Cavan, Cork and Limerick. They personify the spirit of those Irish who left their ancestral home and
helped build the American nation.
