Kenneth Bryant Wick, Jr.
(1961 - 2009)


Bryant was committed to the Emily Hall Tremaine Foundation, and served as Chairman of the Board at the time of his death.  He played a lead role in crafting a program for the next generation of Tremaine family members, many of whom are now serving on the Board.  Bryant will always be deeply missed by his family, friends and all of us at the Emily Hall Tremaine Foundation.
