Seattle Children’s Memorial Wall is an enduring way to recognize someone who has passed away. When the gifts in memory of an individual total $500, that person’s name is added to the Memorial Wall at the hospital, and remains on the wall for 20 years – a long-lasting reminder of a special person’s legacy.
