Pearson College Honours Two Zontians
Thursday, November 12, 2009, David Hawley, Director of Pearson, announced that Sannee McFarlane (left) had been named a Patron of Pearson College. This occurred at a reception honouring Audrey Tappin, who passed away in 2008 leaving her estate to the Pearson College Endowment Fund. Pearson planted a tree in its grounds, and attached a plaque honouring Audrey's memory.
We're proud of you both, Sannee and Audrey!
