Sending Our Condolences
- Patricia M. LaFontaine, 57, began working for LeGros Buchanan & Paul of Seattle, Washington, while she attended Central Washington University, from which she ultimately earned a bachelor’s in accounting. Patricia remained at LeGros for the duration of her career — 37 years in total — and ultimately attained the title of Legal Administrator. She was also a member of the Puget Sound Chapter. Our thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues.
- Mark Lott, 65, had been the Firm Administrator for Eisenberg, Cutt, Kendell & Olson in Salt Lake City, Utah, for over seven years and was about to retire. He was also a member of the Utah Chapter of ALA, as well as the National Association of Credit Managers. Our sympathies are with those who knew him.
- Gil Price, 59, was the Executive Director of Condominium Law Group in Seattle, Washington. Gil was also a member of the Puget Sound Chapter. According to his employer, contributions in his memory can be made to Fair Fight and Lambda Legal. Our thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues.
