[WSBAPT] No Memorial Bench, definitely not there....

Tue Aug 4 15:57:27 PDT 2020

I grew up near Greenlake and have run that lake hundreds of times. There are so many memorial benches there I cannot count. Maybe Parks & Rec changed a policy along the way? Or perhaps they have allowed so many memorial benches there that they are not doing it anymore.
I believe this may be in the purview of the Seattle Parks Foundation. https://www.seattleparksfoundation.org/
If not a bench, they can help you plant a tree and such.
Best,
Nick

I know a prior Head of the Parks has one in his and his wife's name on Alki ? Maybe its just who you are or know?  I also recall the Rotary being able to get some things (not sure about a bench) - do you know a Rotarian  or other social group with some leverage?

I attended a memorial in the 90’s at Green Lake for one of our senior partners and we planted a tree in his memory.  Not sure if the City still allows this.

Greetings List -

Has anyone had experience working with the City of Seattle regarding memorial benches? Client specifically wanted a bench to be at or adjacent to Greenlake. Seattle Parks does not do memorial benches (so I was just told) and they "definitely won't do one there" - the idea that it would become overrun with benches, maybe? But that also makes me think from their comment that they might do one elsewhere even though I was just told that they don't do them at all....

Anyway - The estate distribution is truly simple - one small cash, two benches in two different locations, and then the remainder beneficiary.

Trying my best to honor wishes and would love to connect with others who may have had a similar situation.

Thank you!
Brent
