I'm sure many of you know that Wirt was a Research Asssociate with the Field
Museum in Chicago.
http://www.aics-research.com/research/~atmar.html

I contacted the Museum about establishing a memorial fund in Wirt's honor.
Both Bruce Patterson, Wirt's friend and colleague and Sheila Cawley, Vice
President Institutional Advancement at the Museum, think that this is an
excellent way for us to both help the Museum and preserve Wirt's legacy.

Gifts to the Museum are tax-deductible and can be done electronically.  Go
to the museum's website (www.fieldmuseum.org/annualfund) and click on the
"Join Now."  At the bottom of that page, click "Online."

To associate your gift with Wirt's Fund, please additionally send an email
to Sheila Cawley (scawley -at- fieldmuseum.org).
