Remembering Paul Meyer
On Tuesday, October 10, 2023 our dear friend and revered Pastorius Park restoration advisor, Paul Meyer (retired Director of Morris Arboretum), passed away.
To honor Paul and further his strategic vision for Pastorius Park, FoPP is dedicating our next restoration project in the park’s NE Woods as a memorial to Paul’s passion for our park. Habitat restoration, as well as storm water and erosion mitigation, was near and dear to Paul.
Please help us realize Paul’s vision and complete this significant restoration effort by making a gift to FoPP in his honor.
