On November 28, Patterson Library unveiled a new stained glass window
created by glass artist Patrick Todoroff, donated by Sandra Hurd and
Joel Potash in memory of Patricia Nixon Greenleaf and Faith Crandall
Scott. Todoroff was asked to create a window inspired by and
accentuatiung the gorgeous view of Patterson's Pergola Garden. The
window features a fitting quote from Cicero: "If you have a garden and
a library, you have everything you need." The window is a tribute to
two remarkable women who appreciated the value that great libraries
give to our lives.
