Anyone who was lucky enough to know Peter-Lawrence Pope knew of his dedication to his alma mater, Vassar College.

It is only fitting that Peter's memory be honored with a dedicated tree and bench on Vassar's campus.

Dedicating a bench requires a donation of $5,000. Dedicating a tree requires a donation of $3,000. I am confident that we can raise this quickly for someone with as monumental a legacy as the one and only Peter-Lawrence Pope.

More information regarding the location of these memorials—as well as a live dedication that his friends are welcome to attend this August—will be forthcoming.
