Finally got the photos from the 2/12 memorial to load. Here is where the event took place.

The large banquet room held nearly 100 when everyone got there
This is Dustin Callas, Cindy's son, Pat's grandson. He gave the official eulogy. It was just the right balance of thanks to specific important people, tender memories and sprinkling of humor. Well done Dustin!

Patricia Ann Baker Bontempo Vercelli, born October 25, 1933, died December 26, 2011.
"Ami" is what her grandchildren called her

Gramma and Becca came home with one of the tulip table decorations
This memorial was skillfully planned mostly by Cindy. There was plenty of time for guests--friends and family of Pat--to visit together. After Dustin completed the eulogy, he opened the mic for anyone who wished to express their feelings. 8 or 9 people did. Very touching. We are glad that we could be in attendance.
