The Appleby family treasures what San Diego offers both residents and visitors from Padre games to Little Italy restaurants to San Diego ’ s gorgeous beaches to the Cedros Design District and more . In 2005 , the Appleby / Payne family spearheaded the fundraising of a tennis center for Cathedral Catholic High School . A good friend of Kerry ’ s , Jane Johnson was dying of ALS , so Jane ’ s husband , friends , fellow tennis players and future CCHS families donated enough within 6 weeks to break ground for the tennis center . This was a wonderful example of how San Diegans came together to honor an exceptional woman who was a strong supporter of childhood literacy programs , a competitive National tennis player and a woman of faith .
