Services for Lawrence will take place in the Mountainside Conference Center at the Ski Area Main Lodge. The Center will open at 5:30pm Sunday and services start at 6:00pm. Speakers will remember Lawrence with stories and film clips.


Family members have asked that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to ALIMAR, the Andrea Lawrence Institute of Mountains and Rivers. Go to www.alimar.org for more information.

ALIMAR is gathering stories, tributes and photos of Andrea Lawrence to be compiled into a publication honoring her life and vision. They ask that you contact ALIMAR if you are interesting in participating. Call 709-1507 and talk to Jennifer Heintzelman.

And, again, the memorial services are Sunday, 6:00pm to 8:00pm at the Mountainside Conference Center at the Ski Area Main Lodge.
