Congrats to my mom who not only got re-elected for City Council, but got first in the polls!!! Out of 3 people, she got first! I am so proud of her. She has been in some kind of elected office for about 18 years now....crazy, I know. Here is her bio on The City of Whittier website. Go MOM!!!

Council Member Cathy Warner

Cathy Warner was elected to the City Council in 2004. She has lived in Whittier since 1948, her family has been here since 1920. She and her husband Dave have seven children and 20 grandchildren. Cathy attended John Greenleaf Whittier & Longfellow Elementary Schools, Dexter & East Whittier Junior High Schools and graduated from California High School. She received an A.A. Degree from Fullerton Junior College and a B.S. in Dental Hygiene from the University of Missouri at Kansas City. She and her husband practice periodontics in their Whittier-based office.
