Please join David Taylor's friends and colleagues in a celebration of his
life:
When: June 20th (Summer Solstice) from 7:00pm to ~9:00pm

with bold patterns.
What to bring: Mementos you would like to place on a memory
wall during the evening - and take home afterward. There will also be a
guestbook for you to write comments. The guestbook will go to David's wife
(JoAnn McManus) after the service. If you cannot attend, please feel free
to send an e-mail message to Jennifer Walton ([log in to unmask]),
so that we can put it into the guestbook.
What is the program: A number of people representing
different eras of David's life will make short presentations, followed by a
participatory kazoo concert and a carrot cake buffet (David's favorite
dessert).
Ways David will be commemorated:
o David's web site of exhibit images will be
hosted by Pacific Science Center and updated by Alison Kartiganer, the
Center's present Director of Exhibits.
o An Exhibit Operating Endowment in David's
name will be set up and a commemorative plaque will be located in a
prominent public location.
Ways to honor David: Come celebrate his life with family
and friends on June 20th. In lieu of flowers and other remembrances, David

life.
