Business Owner, Cuvée Wine Cellars

Paul Rogerville was born in 1947 in San Francisco, California, and he has lived in San Mateo County since his family moved here 70 years ago. He currently resides in San Mateo.

Paul’s profession began with a 12-year career in banking with Wells Fargo Bank as Assistant Vice President Operations. For the next 10 years he sold multimillion‑dollar data-processing systems to financial institutions. From there he created a disaster‑recovery company for small financial institutions, which he did for two years.

Paul then took over the family construction business. Among other things, his company’s focus was on remodeling residential properties and managing several homeowner associations’ maintenance contracts.

In 2010, after 20 years as president of Pro-Construction Company, he retired to pursue his passion in winemaking and opened Cuvée Wine Cellars in San Carlos, as a semi-retirement endeavor/hobby. This came after years of making wine in conjunction with taking classes at UC Davis. Cuvée is now recognized as an award‑winning winery.

Paul is committed to and believes in giving to his community. His passion for winemaking and his winery allow him to give to various charities in San Mateo County. Paul is also currently an active member of San Mateo Rotary Club and serves on its Board of Directors.

Grace Hassid, MD

Physician, San Mateo Medical Center

Dr. Grace DiGioia Hassid was born under the shadow of the Statue of Liberty in Jersey City, New Jersey. Her father was a physician and surgeon caring for the poor and underserved, her mother taught emotionally disturbed girls in the inner city at Public School #5. Their large Victorian home included their five children, grandchildren, cousins, friends and international students from around the globe who were welcomed and treated as family too. Dinners were homemade, delicious and never lasted less than two hours with intellectual discussions and the time it took to do the dishes! Two siblings of Dr.Grace also became physicians and the other two teachers of music and and art respectively. Caring for others in a selfless manner was taught through parental example; life was lived with gratitude and joy, the values needed for community service that matters.

Dr.Hassid serves as the Infection Control Officer for the County of San Mateo and also works as a medical consultant for the Department of Psychiatry, caring for the most vulnerable members of our society.

“I am proud to serve on the San Mateo County Health Foundation! I truly believe that health and education are the most important factors in determining quality of life anywhere in the world and we are lucky to have this group working together to lessen disparities of care here in beautiful San Mateo County. I hope others will join us and learn the joy that I have found through service to those who need it most!”
