Newport PTSA - Class of 2011 News -- Memorial Service for Heather DeHart

Many of you, particularly those of you who had students in the orchestra program at Tyee, already know about the sudden and tragic death of Heather DeHart in a boating accident this past weekend. We recently learned from Tyee of the family's plans for Heather's memorial service and a memorial fund. Heather's parents wanted the school community to know that making room for the staff, students, and families is important to them. Here are the details provided by her family:
