A Celebration of Craig Hamrick's Life: November 18, 2006
« on: October 31, 2006, 06:14:49 AM »
Dear Friends:

I am writing with updated information about the memorial for Craig Hamrick.

The celebration of Craig's life and work will take place on Saturday, November 18, 2006 at 10:30am.  The location will be Greenberg Lounge in Vanderbilt Hall, 40 Washington Square South in Manhattan.  Vanderbilt Hall is part of the Law School at New York University, and the entrance is between Macdougal Street and Sullivan Street.

The easiest way to get to the site is to take the subway to West 4th Street.  Exit the station at the downtown end, and the building is a block and a half away.  Washington Square South is actually West 4th Street, except for the few blocks that it borders the park.

For those of you that are driving, there should be a parking garage on West 3rd Street between 6th Avenue and Macdougal Street.  You are then only two blocks from the site.

I would also recommend visiting www.mapquest.com for more information about location.

If you cannot attend the memorial but would like to share some thoughts about Craig, please send them through to me by November 11 (js1655@nyu.edu).  I will work to compile them and have them read or displayed as part of the tribute to Craig. 

Thank you all for your continued support over the past few weeks.  Craig's absence in my life has grown more pronounced with time, but I hope that this memorial will allow all of us to celebrate the joy and happiness that Craig brought to so many people while alive and all the fond memories that still remain, even though he is not physically with us.

As always, with much warmth and thanks,

joe salvatore

That's very nice.  I am looking forward to meeting up with Janet and others who will be attending the service and probably meeting up afterwards for a toast to Craig.  Wish you could be there, David.

I've actually toyed with the idea of going to CheapTickets.com & flying into NYC for a day.
Not sure if I can do that, though.

I'd love to be there & honor Craig.

Ah well.  I believe anyone can be honored anywhere when you are thinking of them.

Nancy:

then I honor Craig everyday.

I did send Joe my personal Craig story, and I found a venue in SF who wants to have a show of Craig's photos in the Spring.
I'll email Joe about this after the service.

Well cousins, I'm off this morning to NYC for the Memorial for Craig.  I know I will see some of you there and I'm looking forward to lifting a glass to Craig w/you on Saturday.
