The public event is being co-sponsored by Orinda Rotary and the Orinda Chamber of Commerce. A long-time Rotarian and co-founder of the Orinda-Tabor Sister City Foundation, Heggie will be remembered for his deep commitment to the community, as well as his distinguished international relations career which included 19 years with the Asia Foundation and service as an executive director of the World Affairs Council.
