The family would like to extend special gratitude to Penny and Phil Jones, Dan Jones and Dr. Bettag for all their support and sacrifices during P.J’s final days. Go in peace big brother.
A celebration of life is being planned for June 29th at the Milwaukee County Zoo, Tembo Trail Picnic area, starting at around 10:30. This is a highly casual event and you may come as you please and plan to spend time exploring the zoo. There will be food and beverages provided as well as admission and parking for the Zoo. We will have plenty of music and memories so everyone can reflect and remember all the joys of Patrick's life.
If you plan to attend the celebration we ask that you drop a note to freedlee@live.com - with your favorite song; a personal request of P.J.s and so we can have an approximate head count for everything else.
