Memorial

A memorial fund has been set up for the family of a young mother, wife, artist and community activist, who was taken from us more than a half-century too soon.  BJ was bright, funny, but most of all a giving, caring individual.

To donate, send a check to:

Barbara J. Kilpatrick Memorial Fund
C/O ORNL Federal Credit Union
P.O.Box 365
Oak Ridge TN 37831

Anyone who visits here often has surely been alerted to the story, as painstakingly detailed at Atomictumor.

As a footnote, say “thanks” if you get a chance to John McKittrick, President of ORNL Federal Credit Union, for staying at work until 6 p.m. on a Friday evening to get this done.  It was 5 p.m. when I first spoke with him, and he really went the extra mile by making it happen today instead of waiting until Monday.

    [...] Two weeks ago I asked for some  prayers, good wishes, or whatever would help Atomictumor's wife in her struggle with a sudden infection.  It started with the flu and quickly turned into a life and death situation.  I'm very sad to report that she past away on November 17, 2006.  BJ was only 29 years old.   Things were improving for a while but in the end it was not meant to be. They had two small kids and memorial fund information can be found here.   [...]
