you both again for being ambassadors at

As the single biggest day for Walk SF

there's no way to underestimate how

Walk SF
I wanted to thank Public Works for
the work you did on the Arbor Day
St. Mary’s Square tree planting, which
honored Rose Pak. The event itself
was loving and meaningful and an
appropriate tribute to Rose. And, as you
can see here, the planting turned out
great. This was a nice partnership effort
between Public Works and Rec and
Park.

I'm writing to let you know how
much I've appreciated Peachy Mathias’
responsiveness.
I attended the Chinatown meeting last
week and spoke with her afterwards. I
followed up with an email to which she
responded immediately and even called
me to touch base.
She's a gem!
