Patricia Lyon -Surrey Legacy

My name is James Buchta. It is with a sadness that I recently learned my sister Patricia passed away. She was struck and killed by a car while biking in Tucson. I have fond memories throughout the years of our hikes and bike rides together. Just this past summer we biked the San Juan islands in Washington state. I will always hold on to those special moments.
The two things I hope to accomplish, in the very near future, with these funds are one to create a memorial near the intersection she was killed in honor of her.  Second, to work with the city of Tucson in developing  a safer street crossing for bikers and motorists alike. For example, a stop sign for the driver and/or bicyclist, or caution lights to warn drivers of approaching bicyclists.
It is my hope, by rasing these funds, to possibly prevent another tragic death at this dangerous bicycle crossing and to carry on my sister's memory.
