IN LOVING MEMORY,
HARVEY LALONDE

Harvey was an indispensable part of the team from the moment he joined Blood in the Snow in 2013, but in recent years he was more like family. His impact on our lives will be hard to fully measure, but I hope we can live up to his legacy and example of friendship and community service.

He will be forever listed in our program booklet as "Team Member Emeritus" and in our hearts.

We are planning a Celebration of Life that will take place on June 11, 2023
