It was a beautiful 70 degree sunny day. The event did not appear to be sold out as the rear and side sections were empty. The front section was reserved for VIPs and friends of NWF but the rest was general seating. The event ran 1.5 hours long ending at 3:30 pm instead of 2:00 pm. People started leaving around 2 and 2:30 pm.
Beth Pratt of the National wildlife Federation read the eulogy which was in the LA Times. Senator Anthony Portantino presented a California Senate Declaration. Congressman Adam Schiff talked about the new P22 stamp and pro wildlife legislation. Congressman Ted Lieu talked about what P22 meant to California. Actor Julia Butters read a letter she wrote when she was eight about P22 trying to help him. Rainn Wilson Actor sang a song he wrote about P22. The Tokens relatives sang two songs including "The Lion Sleeps Tonight." Governor Gavin Newsom appeared via video as did Senator Alex Padilla.
