This fall, a few more of the pavers beneath the J.P. Patches & Gertrude statue, the ‘Late For The Interurban’ by Kevin Edwin Pettelle, will be engraved – and if you want to share your message, name or honor a friend forever in Fremont – the deadline to contact History House of Greater Seattle about your own personalized paver is Friday, August 26th at 5p.
It’s not too late to get your inscription immortalized forever in one of the engraved pavers. Get one or two lines of text for only $100, or get three lines for $125.
Proceeds from engraving (and donations given in the can at the statue,) over and above costs for the statues’ maintenance, go to the Children’s Hospital Foundation in honor of J.P. Patches & Gertrude. The statue, and the pavers, are maintained by History House of Greater Seattle. Go to the History House website for the printable .pdf paver reservation form, or call 206/675-8875 for more details about how you can get your words into the permanent narrative of Fremont!
