PAT GEE FUND: Midori Bonsai Club administers a memorial fund known as the PAT GEE
MEMORIAL EDUCATION FUND. The goal of this fund is to perpetuate the memory of the late Pat Gee, whose vivacious personality and dedication to bonsai inspired many of us to improve our
knowledge and general practice of the art of bonsai. The Fund contributes to the community through
the administration of grants in support of club projects of an educational nature. Pat Gee originally designed the Midori Bonsai Club Logo that appears at the top of this page.
