Here are a few photos from the memorial service last night. The second line was a hit and the neighborhood had a moment to pay respects to a man that epitomized jazz and North Beach....Scott

A Gathering for BJ Papa
A memorial celebration of B.J. Papa's life and accomplishments was held at Mojitos on Sunday September 28th, 2008 from 2 PM - 9 PM. Musical performances included, amongst many others, the BJ Papa Band, Bishop Norman Williams, Henry Hung, David Ewell, Kennny Washington, Attila Medveczky, Sameer Gupta, Kim Nalley, and many other friends. Special thanks to so many others who made this be so wonderful.
Every person that loved him was another reason he lived "longer than I ever thought I would live" as he used to say.
