Parviz and Myleene Sohaei
Parviz and Myleene established this fund in 2021. Myleene earned her bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education from UW-L in 1962 and her master’s degree at California Lutheran University. She continued to share her love of learning with hundreds of children over the years in Wisconsin and California. Sadly, Myleene passed away in 2022.
During their 67-year marriage, Myleene and Parvis enjoyed traveling to all parts of the world making many lifelong friends along the way. Myleene enjoyed taking care of her homes and loved tending to her lemon orchard in Encinitas, California. She relished serving her community, especially in her role as Senior Volunteer Patrol for San Diego County. Myleene lived a life filled with optimism, love, and gratitude.
