Peg Kay Memorial
Unfortunately our Peg Kay died suddenly and has been moved to our Board
Memorial at https://lifeboat.com/ex/board.memorial
An extensive memorial about her is at
http://www.washacadsci.org/peg-kay/
Our Summer Fundraiser that she was backing will be her last activity
with the Lifeboat Foundation. Since this fundraiser was not completed
and we wish to honor her last wishes, we will try one more time to
complete it and will extend the deadline for two more days.
