Funds are now being collected toward the cost of a permanent memorial to be installed on "Patricia's Green in Hayes
Valley" at Octavia Boulevard and Hayes Street. The most recent thought on the design is an illuminated, etched glass
panel (similar to, but on a smaller scale than the San Jose Veteran's Memorial) . It will tell the story of how Patricia and
the many other ordinary citizens of Hayes Valley remained steadfast through three ballot initiatives to see the Octavia Blvd./Central
Freeway Project completed. The memorial will be a tribute to the community spirit that has transformed the neighborhood. (The
cost of the memorial could be between $15-25,000 dollars.)
Please send your donation, payable to: Hayes Valley Neighborhood Association 1800 Market St,
PMB #104 San Francisco, CA 94102 Please note "Patricia Walkup Fund"
in the Memo line.
