The friends and family of the Honorable Kaye Tertzag will host the Fourth Annual Tertzag Tribute Dinner on Thursday, Feb. 28.
Tertzag died Feb. 4, 2009, having established a legacy of integrity and service to the State of Michigan, as well as an example of love and devotion to his family and friends.
To preserve and honor his memory, the dinner will be held at the Park Place Banquet Hall in Dearborn from 5:30-9:30 p.m. Park Place is located at the corner of Park and Outer Drive, just south of Michigan Avenue.
Tickets are $40 and include dinner and an open bar.
Meanwhile, organizers announced that the 2013 recipient of the Purple Sport Coat Award is Michigan Supreme Court Justice-Elect Bridget Mary McCormack.
Wayne County Circuit Court Judge David J. Allen, last year’s recipient, will present her the award.
A former Yale professor, McCormack served as the clinical director for the University of Michigan Law School’s Innocence Project before her election to the Michigan Supreme Court last November.
The event’s keynote speaker will be state Supreme Court Justice Brian Zahra.
Tertzag and Zahra were friends and once served together on the Wayne County Circuit Court.
Zahra served four years on the Wayne County Circuit Court and 12 years on the state Court of Appeals before Gov. Rick Snyder appointed him to the state’s highest court in 2011.
The evening will come to a close by continuing the tradition started by Tertzag’s daughter, Kara Tertzag Lividini — the Sambuca toast.
Attendees are encouraged to wear purple to the event. Those wearing purple will be entered into a drawing for a door prize.
Checks payable to the Tertzag Tribute Dinner LLC should be sent to 997 Henrietta, Birmingham, MI 48009.
