AIDS play lands at the Raven
● On-stage seating adds to intimacy of ‘Angels in America’
By Christian Kallen
One of the country’s most important plays is being presented at the Raven Theater this month in the way it’s supposed to be done: three acts, two intermissions. A long night at the theater, but an intimate experience for cast and audience alike. Angels in America is one of the most honored plays of modern times, winner of the Tony for best stage show on Broadway, and the Pulitzer for best drama of 1993 among other accolades. Written by Tony Kushner in the depths of the AIDS crisis of the
1980s, it touches on a complex story-line of characters who confront in their own ways the impact of a deadly disease of unknown origin that seems to be affecting the gay community almost exclusively at first.
The production at the Raven lasts until May 24, though it is only Part 1 (The Millennium). Part 2 (Perestroika) will not be staged this year, but Steven David Martin, the director of the Raven Players and of this production, would not rule it out for a later season. When we spoke with

Savoring the flavor of local
● New book of photos, profiles brings it all back home
By Christian Kallen
Wine lovers like to share that a winetasting experience involves all the senses—the look and color of the liquid and how it clings to the glass; the aro-
mas, literally the bouquet that erupts to the discerning nose; the “mouthfeel” of the wine, as well as its actual flavor profile on the palate.

I’m a 40-year resident of Healdsburg. From what I have observed those three things are not evidenced in the way the council has voted in the last five years. Specifically since this council has been in place. It’s not been a democratic process by any means. The record shows the council all vote together according to their consensus of opinion. Not for the representation of their constituents. It’s become standard operating procedure. Actions speak louder than words.

that are printed, in much better quality, in this work as well.
Soon Gershman had set up a partnership with the Healdsburg Certified Farmers’ Market and the Friends of the Healdsburg Farmers’ Market for the book, which took over a year to write, photograph and produce.
As the new book came closer to completion, eventually to be boxed and shipped from Hong Kong, Gershman said, “I’m a traveler,” at the outset of a recent interview. “I got my first passport when I was six. We went to Eleuthera in the Bahamas for my seventh birthday, and they had a pink sand beach, so it was pretty special.”
It wasn’t a one-off. “We traveled a lot when I was growing up,” she continued. “I’m an only child, and so that made it feasible.” That broad background in travel came to define Gershman’s journey, although it was as a photographer that she began to build a career, including as an associate chair of photography at the Savannah College of Art and Design, in Georgia.
The travels, however, ranged far and wide, and the sense of discovery—perhaps the most important of the senses— led to a career in international publishing.
as a beautifully photographed 325page book that appears this month. Its author, Liza Gershman, is a Sonoma County resident again, though not always; raised in Bennett Valley, she returned here just a couple of years ago with the embers of a new book catching fire in her imagination.
We agreed then that she should contribute a column every couple of weeks for The Healdsburg Tribune, and in last fall’s newspapers one can read earlier drafts of some of the chapters in this new book, and see some of the photos
“I do a lot of place-based work, where I deep-dive into a community and a culture, and share stories of and about that location,” Gershman said, a description that fits this current book perfectly. “This was a natural progression of that work. And it felt like for my 20th book, doing a piece about home felt really meaningful.”
Not only is it about a landscape familiar to her, but she has taken greater control in the publishing process with each book. Other titles include Cuban Flavor, County Fair and Drink Vermont: Beer Wine and Spirits of the Green Mountain State. All are as visual as they are learned,

delving into the history and spirit of their locations.
Among her favorite books is Nantucket , her most recent title before Healdsburg, and clearly another of her favorite towns. She often speaks of the small island off Cape Cod, formerly a whaling center, now a popular New England Destination. She visits often, and has a web of friends there as deep as her local network.
That aside, this book is all Healdsburg. To turn the pages is to see familiar faces, to read the recipes is to begin to collect ingredients. For us, it’s not hard: it’s a hyper-local book, and every recipe in it could be made with market ingredients (including for the archetypal Prune Spice Cake, a flavor from another era). Each is beautifully represented by rich, colorful photographs, one on every spread. Her work is about visual appeal, not only in the photographs in the book but its whole layout, context and the tastefulness of the talent behind it.
The book makes it easy to appreciate the agricultural bounty of Healdsburg, and the narrative in many ways traces the growth of the city into a culinary des-
tination. It’s about wine only insofar as wine is a food.
“I think that’s how our community will survive,” she said. “You know, the wine industry is not sustainable, and food is something that we need forever.”
Her mother, Nancy Gershman, still lives deep in Bennett Valley, past Sonoma Mountain Road. She, too, is an artist, and her work decorates Farm + Market: Healdsburg subtly and effectively. “Artistic expression runs in the family,” she told me at a book-release party held recently at J Winery. Healdsburg friends, farmers, winemakers and a few other familiar faces gathered to enjoy what felt like the first perfect weekend of the year, to say nothing of a Russian River pinot noir.
I told Nancy Gershman I met Liza many years ago, when she entered a Sexin-the-City fashion contest at the old Rialto on Summerfield. When I lifted my camera to take a photo, she struck a pose, and held it until the shot was right. It was perfect.
Reminded of that moment, Liza Gershman leaned over to say, sotto voce, “I’ve never entered a costume contest I didn’t win.”
I found that entirely believable.
‘Farm + Market: Healdsburg’ will be available after May 23 at select local bookstores, shops and tasting rooms.

To improve your rate, improve your credit
● A higher credit score can lower interest costs
By Janis Mara
The Bay Area’s notoriously high home prices are one of the biggest challenges facing homebuyers as the market shifts into high gear this spring. Improving your mortgage interest rate can boost your buying power.
Next to the sticker price, the interest rate is the biggest influence on your monthly payments. A Bay Area mortgage broker gave a real-life example.
“In 2023, mortgage interest rates averaged around 7 percent,” said Jeanine Nucum, a broker with Mortgage Masters of California. “A client of mine bought a house for $650,000 at that rate. Now that rates have dropped, I was able to get them a 5.99 percent rate in February.
“Their payments went down $650 a month,” Nucum said.
To get the best rate, make sure you have the highest credit score possible, the broker said.
To get started, obtain a copy of your credit report. That will show you your credit score and what all your outstanding balances are.
You can request free credit reports from the three major credit reporting bureaus (Experian, Equifax and TransUnion) and dispute any errors that might be suppressing your credit score, according to personal finance website NerdWallet.
You can access these reports at AnnualCreditReport.com.
FICO scores in the highest range (740-850) are considered “very good” to "exceptional," while scores in the 670-
739 range are “good,” scores in the 580669 range are “fair,” and scores below 580 are "very poor.”
You can increase your score by paying your bills on time, reducing your debt and maintaining low credit balances. You’ll also want to pay off any debts that have gone to collections, according to NerdWallet.
“Pay off or pay down any outstanding debt that has high interest—credit cards, personal loans,” Nucum said.
Getting that credit score up is the biggest step you can take toward getting a better interest rate, according to Nucum and NerdWallet. The second most impactful move is to increase your down payment.
“If you want the best interest rate, you have to have the best down payment,” the broker said.
Being able to put a larger amount down on a house will lower your loanto-value ratio and generally also your mortgage rate.
The loan-to-value ratio measures the size of the mortgage on a property relative to that property's value. For example, if you make a 20 percent down payment, your loan-to-value is 80 percent.
Conventional mortgage borrowers who put down less than 20 percent are also required to pay private mortgage insurance, an additional monthly expense. When looking at lender rates online, be aware that the advertised rate often assumes that the borrower is putting down 20 percent or more.
You can also consider paying discount points, though this means you’ll typically shell out thousands upfront to save a few dollars monthly; overall, bumping up your credit score and your down payment are the most solid strategies.
RECENT SALES AND PRICES
In Sonoma County, the median home is worth $765,333, according to the Zillow Home Value Index.
In March 2026, Sonoma County home prices were down 0.69 percent compared to last year, selling for a median price of $815,000, according to data from Redfin. On average, homes in Sonoma County sell after 36 days on the market, compared to 38 days last year. There were 320 homes sold in March this year, up from 282 last year.
Martin earlier this week, we asked him where he had seen the play or directed the play before.
Steven David Martin: I was out in New York in an early iteration, after it had opened on Broadway. It wasn’t the original cast, but it was pretty close. And I saw it a few years ago at Berkeley Rep. The two times I was fortunate enough to see it, I got to see both parts on the same day, so If you think a three-hour play is long, it’s quite an experience. But you know, there are certain stories that need that breadth and that depth.
I always like to say, a really well-written play is as long as it should be. And if it feels like it’s really long, then you know we’re doing something wrong. But over the first three performances I’ve had several people say, “Yes, it’s a long play, but it sure doesn’t feel that way.” Time, as we know, is relative.
Healdsburg Tribune: All that said, what is Angels in America about?
SDM: There’s a lot of things going on in this play. The driving plot line is about a gentleman who is diagnosed with AIDS— it’s set in 1985. So this is at a point in time where the [Reagan] administration was
There are nine people in the cast, and several of them play multiple roles. There’s about three plot lines that intertwine and overlap, and some of the characters from each of those plot lines end up interacting with characters from the other plot lines.
not only marginalizing the gay community and ignoring this burgeoning epidemic, but pretty much trivializing it as well, literally saying things like, “Well, it’s just a gay disease.” And so that’s one of the tragedies of the play.
That’s the engine that runs the play, but it’s about a lot more. It’s about connection. It’s about community, it’s about the government not serving its people. It’s about faith. It’s about so much more than just the central AIDS storyline. Is there any one central character? How many actors are in it?
I cast it almost a year ago, last June. Most of these actors I’ve worked with before, and some of them quite a few times. And honestly, one of the reasons I’ve been wanting to direct the show for a number of years, and one of the reasons I’ve sort of held off, is that I thought I really need, top to bottom or across the board, the best actors. Not only talented actors, but actors who are going to be able to commit to it, because it’s a demanding play. It’s a physically demanding play. It’s mentally exhausting, it’s emotionally exhausting.
I was asking them to be very vulnerable and, just going places that maybe they haven’t gone as an actor, some uncomfortable places. So it was not just a matter of finding nine talented actors. It was a matter of finding nine talented actors who I knew would work well together, and I knew would get everything they had to the show.
How did the audience respond to your first performances last weekend?
The audience response has been incredibly enthusiastic, and they’ve been wonderful. Even though there are lots of heavy moments and a serious subject matter, a great playwright will give you some comedy, too. And there is a surprising amount of humor in the play. But people have responded very, very positively to the play.
Every Sunday matinee we do a postshow discussion with the audience, so they get a chance to make comments and ask questions of the actors. We saw there were a lot of people who were quite moved and quite touched by the play. So the opening weekend could not have gone better, as far as I’m concerned.
‘Angels in America, Part 1’ plays Thursday at 7:30pm; pay what you choose. Other performances continue Friday and Saturday at 7:30pm, Sunday matinee at 2pm, through May 24. Tickets $25, $10 student, Raven Performing Arts Theater, 115 North St. raventheater.org

Record-setting season for Greyhounds
● Third-place finish for team, records for four players
By Caleb Knudsen
Healdsburg’s Greyhounds baseball team is looking forward to the playoff season, hoping that their near-misses during the regular schedule bring them the credibility they deserve.
“We swept Santa Rosa, swept St. Vincent’s, swept Piner,” said coach Mark Domenichelli. The day before, the Hounds had made the Piner Prospectors
look helpless in the May 8 game at Rec Park, with a 20-2 win. Though the game was ended by the mercy rule in the fifth inning, truth be told the final result was telegraphed in the second inning when Healdsburg added 11 runs to its first-inning two, to put the score at 13-0.
The Piner team finally got on the board in the top of the fifth, but only after another big Healdsburg inning brought seven more across the plate.
Leading the charge was second baseman Frank Rea who scored four runs, as Mason Radelfinger and Dillan Jocius crossed the plate three times each.
Only two teams in their league, the NBL-Redwood, have gotten the better of the Greyhounds this year: first-place Analy and second-place Montgomery. The NBL playoffs come up this week, starting with Analy vs. Healdsburg on May 13, and the final game on Friday May 15, which pits the winner of that game against the winner of the Montgomery-Santa Rosa game for the league championship.
Baseball fans take note: The NBL-Oak playoff follows the same schedule, and Friday, May 15, finds both sub-leagues playing for their championship at Rec Park here in Healdsburg. The Redwood teams face off at about 4:30pm, the Oak teams at 7pm.
However, Domenichelli is pretty happy with the team fielded this year. “It’s been another great year,” he said. “And I’ll tell you this: This group of seniors I had, I’ve had five of them for all four years of high school. They never played JV baseball.”
WINNINGEST Healdsburg’s Alex Mauro-Manos racked up 21 wins during his four seasons with the Greyhounds, the most ever for a local pitcher.
Those players, and others, have delivered record-setting seasons for Healdsburg baseball. Pitcher Alex Mauro-Manos recorded 21 wins, Isaiah Robles had 38 hits and Henry Smith drove in 29 runs as of last Friday’s game. But it was Hayden Mariani who stood out, breaking three school records with 88 hits, 86 runs and 40 stolen bases.
“It’s funny because if you think about it, they won 65 games in their baseball career at Healdsburg High School, which is the most by any team. That’s an unbelievable stat,” Domenichelli said.
Domenichelli has coached Healdsburg baseball for many of his 27 years with the school as a kinesiology (PE) teacher, but he still finds reason to look ahead to next year when several key players will return, despite the senior-heavy lineup he’s worked with this year. Among them are Damon Smith, Anthony Espinoza, pitcher Noah Wong and Rea, a superb three-sport athlete who will be a senior next year. But first come the league playoffs, and the following week the division tournament. As they say in the game, “Keep your eye on the ball.”

Fountain rises, Simi sold and more

125 years ago – May 9, 1901
The Fountain: The Beautiful Structure Presented to the People of Healdsburg
The beautiful fountain presented to the people of Healdsburg is a great credit to the firm who built it and a monument lasting and honorable to the ladies of the Improvement Club. All credit to you, ladies, and may each thirsty soul who drinks at this fountain of purest water utter a prayer for your eternal welfare and happiness.
The fountain is a monolithic shaft, crowned by an ornamental bronze electric lamp of five lights of 32 candle-power each. The shaft of white granite is done in what is termed hammered granite, with a border of rock-face. There are four drinking fountains, with basins cut from the solid block of granite. The lights are supplied by electricity taken from the city’s main line on Center street, and the
grounds. There is no admission charge, but a collection will be taken during the afternoon. Trophies will be presented to all first-place winners, with ribbons going to winners first through fifth places. Horse show manager is Don Potts, Sandy Grove is acting as secretary.

current is conveyed by an underground cable which crosses the Plaza to the fountain and up through the interior of the shaft.
On the side facing West street is a polished panel bearing the following legend: “Presented to the City of Healdsburg by the Ladies’ Improvement Club, 1900.” Three artificial stone steps from the four sides lead up to the fountain platform. In the day time the fountain is a conspicuous object in the Plaza, and at night its beauty is enhanced by the cluster of brilliant lights crowning it.

A major importer of European wines and spirits has entered the domestic wine market with the purchase of Simi Winery in Healdsburg. William J. Schieffelin, III, chairman of Schieffelin & Co., an importer since 1794, announced the purchase of the 100-year-old winery from Scottish & Newcastle Breweries, Ltd., of Edinburgh, Scotland.
“For several years, Schieffelin has watched the growing importance of the California wine industry and has been conducting a careful search for a suit-
able winery,” said Morton Reifer, executive vice president of Schieffelin. “Acquisition of Simi culminates this search and establishes a position for our company in the highly attractive California wine industry, while adding an exciting new dimension to our business.” Purchase price of the winery was not disclosed, but it is believed to be about $2 million. Michael D Dixon, president of Simi since 1974, will continue as president. Andre Tchelistcheff, one of America’s leading winemakers, will continue as a consulting enologist, and Mary Ann Graff will continue as winemaker. Jack Lofmark will continue as general manager. The purchase of Simi is the first winery to be owned by the company. Simi will produce only varietals in the future, with all grapes coming from the Alexander Valley.

On May 8, Healdsburg found out what kind of party SMART brings to town. T-shirts and other swag were lined up for free distribution, and plenty of food in various rolls and fingers was available, as was fruit and soda. It was enough to dine on, while officials from Sacramento to Petaluma enthusiastically testified to the benefits of regional rail transportation. The highlight came when the dignitaries each grabbed a mallet and drove in a ‘golden spike’ to signify the coming of the SMART rail to Healdsburg. Expect that to happen late in 2028.

PETER ROSSON
June 24, 1956 – March 19, 2026
Peter Rosson, beloved husband, son, brother, friend and teacher died in his home with his husband at his side in Healdsburg, Ca. on March 19, 2026. Peter was born in San Francisco, Ca. on June 24, 1956. He grew up in Piedmont and Saratoga, Ca. and was a graduate of Saratoga High School and California State University at Chico.
After graduating from college, he worked in marketing for several companies. In 1996, he returned to school and became a third-grade teacher at the Claire Lilienthal School in San Francisco, where he was known as Mr. Rosson in Room 7. He taught for 15 years. A gifted educator, he was loved by students, faculty, parents, and staff. In 2002, Peter received the district teacher of the year award from then San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown.
In 1986, Peter met the love of his life, David Barrett, and together, they formed a 40-year partnership and marriage that was deeply connected and filled with respect. They built an extraordinary life together. Both entrepreneurial and practical, they balanced each other perfectly in the various businesses they built and their hospitality was legendary. An excellent cook, Peter thought nothing of whipping up a dinner for 25 on the spur of the moment; always in the setting of their warm and beautiful homes.
People were immediately drawn to Peter. His innate kindness, sense of fun and masterful sense of humor were always present. His strength, intelligence, common sense and positive spirit carried him through his life. He developed dozens of close friendships, and his circle of friends was vast; rooted in all the places he lived including Healdsburg, Palm Springs and Sea Ranch, Ca., and where he studied and worked.
Although he died too soon, Peter’s life was filled with love of family and friends. He lived his life on his terms and showed up exactly as who he was; consistently and without pretense. His loss is felt deeply and profoundly. To say he is missed is a huge understatement however, his spirit endures as a life that full can never be fully extinguished.
Peter was preceded in death by his mother, Sheila Kneass, who died 11 days before him. He is survived by his husband, David Barrett of Healdsburg and Palm Springs, Ca.; his sister, Katie Rosson (Gibson Scheid) of Healdsburg; his brother, Charlie Rosson (Denise) of Lafayette, Ca.; his nieces, Schuyler and Kiki Rosson of New York City; his stepson, Dave Phinney (Kim) of St. Helena, Ca.; and his step-grandchildren, Lina and Aidan Phinney of Boulder, Co..
Peter’s family would like to thank the oncology and hospice unit at Sutter Health in Santa Rosa and the oncology research department at UCSF Clinical Research for the expert and loving care he received. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to:
Sutter Health c/o Lisa Amador, Office of Philanthropy 34 Mark West Road, Ste. 150 Santa Rosa, Ca., 95403.
A gathering in Peter’s memory will be held this summer on a date to be determined.
JOSHUA CLARK SUMPTER, PHD
October 22, 1992 – May 1, 2026
Joshua Clark Sumpter, 33, a native of Cloverdale, Ca., who attended Healdsburg city schools growing up, died Friday, May 1, 2026 after a 12-year battle with cancer.
Josh graduated from Healdsburg High School in 2010 and went on to earn Bachelor’s, Master’s and PhD degrees in mathematics at UC Davis. A teaching assistant at UC Davis, and professor at University of Rochester in New York, Josh taught calculus and other advanced mathematics courses.
The son of Brian and Shawn Sumpter, both residents of Cloverdale and Healdsburg High School graduates. Josh is survived by his wife of five years, Erica Sumpter; uncle, Gary Sumpter; many cousins and the friends he made in Cloverdale, Healdsburg, Davis, and at the University of Rochester. Josh was beloved by Erica’s family; John Oberg, Cyndi Oberg, Allison, Ryleigh and Wyatt Nelson, Chad Oberg, and Tom and Dorie Zwinger.
Josh enjoyed hiking and exploring with the love of his life, Erica. An avid junior golfer during his teenage years, Josh not only played for his high school team, but won one of the two major tournaments that make up the Lake County Junior Circuit.
While his loss is hard to bear, he would want us all to go on and lead long and happy lives, which he unfortunately was denied.
A memorial service will be held Saturday, May 16, 2026 beginning at 11a.m. at St. Peter’s Catholic Church in Cloverdale with a celebration of life to follow at the adjoining hall. All relatives and friends are welcome to attend and share their memories of Josh.
In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to the American Cancer Society Boston Hope Lodge where Josh and Erica stayed while he received treatment in 2023.

NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE TS No. CA-25-1026705-SH Order No.: 250592887-CA-VOI YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED 2/24/2021. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER.
A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, or cash equivalent if deemed acceptable to the trustee, cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 to the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state, will be held by duly appointed trustee. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust, with interest and late charges thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee for the total amount (at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below. The amount may be greater on the day of sale. BENEFICIARY MAY ELECT TO BID LESS THAN THE TOTAL AMOUNT DUE. Trustor(s): CATRINA MARIE HIGUERA, A SINGLE WOMAN AND VINCENT CRUZ, A SINGLE MAN, AS JOINT TENANTS Recorded: 3/2/2021 as Instrument No. 2021024614 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of SONOMA County, California; Date of Sale: 6/10/2026 at 10:00 AM Place of Sale: In the Plaza at Fremont Park located at 860 Fifth Street, Santa Rosa, CA Amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $557,286.24 The purported property address is: 149 COTTONTAIL WAY, WINDSOR, CA 95492 Assessor’s Parcel No. : 161-230-010-000 All bidders, at the date, time, and place of the scheduled sale, will be required to show satisfactory support to the auctioneer of their ability to pay the amount they intend to bid, unless arrangements have been made with the trustee prior to the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916-939-0772 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this internet website http://www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-25-1026705-SH. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 866-645-7711, or visit this internet website http://www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-25-1026705-SH to find the date on which the
trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. NOTICE TO PROSPECTIVE OWNER-OCCUPANT: Any prospective owner-occupant as defined in Section 2924m of the California Civil Code who is the last and highest bidder at the trustee’s sale shall provide the required affidavit or declaration of eligibility to the auctioneer at the trustee’s sale or shall have it delivered to QUALITY LOAN SERVICE CORPORATION by 5 p.m. on the next business day following the trustee’s sale at the address set forth in the below signature block. NOTICE TO PROSPECTIVE POST-SALE OVER BIDDERS: For post-sale information in accordance with Section 2924m(e) of the California Civil Code, use file number CA-25-1026705-SH and call (866) 645-7711 or login to: http://www.qualityloan.com. The above statutorily mandated notices to Tenant, Prospective Owner-Occupant, and Prospective Post-Sale Over Bidders are brief summaries of what may be required under Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. Compliance with all relevant provisions will be required. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the sale is set aside for any reason, including if the Trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the monies paid to the Trustee. This shall be the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy. The purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Trustor, the Trustee, the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary’s Agent, or the Beneficiary’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only.
