Journal entry by John Smersh —
The memorial events for Frances Smersh are this Friday, October 15. Thanks to everyone who has RSVP'd, you should be receiving an email with more details in the next day or so.
For those who are unable to attend in person, both events will be live streamed and available for viewing later. The service at St. Joseph begins at 11am, the memorial in West Seattle at 3pm; all times are Pacific Daylight Time (UTC -7).
Live streaming link is HERE.
Some people have asked about tribute donations. We have a page set up at the Alzheimer's Association and also suggest Pratt Fine Arts Center, one of Frances's favorite places.
Your $25 donation to CaringBridge will help keep this site online for two weeks. And if you donate by March 28, a generous CaringBridge donor will match your donation, dollar for dollar, up to $10,000.
Make your gift in honor of Frances by midnight on March 28 to be counted!
