Missoula Memorial

Thursday, February 8th, 2007

There will be a memorial for Emily in Missoula, MT, Saturday, February 17. Emily’s friends in Missoula are organizing the activities. For starters there is a run/walk scheduled at 9:45 Meet  at the Union Hall above the Union Club in downtown Missoula at 208 E. Main St. There will then be a memorial gathering with eulogies, remembrances, songs, stories, laughter, tears, pictures, and whatever the winds may bring at 1:00 pm at the Union Hall with a potluck afterwards.

Becky, Laura, and I will be there and I look forward to seeing all the Montana folk. If you are coming from out of town and need a place to stay contact me and I will try to set you up with someone.

I am sure Emily would be embarrassed by all this attention, yet she would also be so very touched and proud.

Memorial Tree

Mandy Scarberry had the city plant a Purple Autumn Ash in the local Piedra Lisa Park as a memorial for Emily. There is a plaque at the base of the tree with Emily’s name. Thanks so much, Mandy and T.J. for your kindness.
