The Woz Memorial Project has been ongoing now for over two decades. The location has been selected, approved and purchased at Mountain View Cemetery located at 5000 Piedmont Avenue in Oakland. Visitors are welcome. Contact Woz for dates and times that he will be at MVCA. Events at MVCA are well-worth attending. Check the Events link on their page. http://www.MountainViewCemetery.org
You can visit the final resting place of WOZ by coming to the Mountain View Cemetery and finding Plot 4, Grave 59 through 69 (eleven grave sites in this rare family plot). This is where the WOZ MEMORIAL will be constructed. Look for the recently installed granite bench. (installation video link below)
Woz has contracted with MVCA who has obtained the services of the preferred monument company Bras & Mattos of Hayward California. Ongoing plans for the engineering, excavation, foundation and construction of the WOZ MEMORIAL will be performed by Bras & Mattos. https://mattosmonuments.com/
At the beginning of the project there were several plans under consideration. After a poll of many trusted participants this ended up as the first choice of many if not most. The "little man" is six feet tall for scale.
This is an image of one of the proposals submitted to MVCA at the beginning of the project. As you can see, the "little man" is six feet tall for scale. There will be four bronze plates (one on each side).
This was the third submission to MVCA at the beginning of the project and was included in the original proposal. Once again, the "little man" is six feet tall for scale.
After the original bronze statue destined to sit atop the Woz Memorial had become unavailable (due to circumstances beyond Woz' control) this image appears to be what the final edition will look like.
Woz is a co-founder of the ACHGP. This is a project worthy of your attention. Please visit the ACHGP website at http://www.ACHGP.org
