Fritz Perlberg

Memorial; November 1, 2006

A memorial service took place on the evening of November 1, 2006, in a large, high-ceiling room on a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Ten people spoke briefly about Fritz Perlberg, and their words were interspersed with video and music that connects with his life.

By clicking on the links below, you can see and hear what took place, as Fritz' best friends gathered to say goodbye, to pay their respects, and to laugh about a full life, well-lived.
