In Newport, along the Cliff Walk, is this bench dedicated to two sisters, Marj Packer and Pat Dorkin.

Cliff Walk is a three plus mile walkway along the shore and behind many of the old 'cottages' such as the Marble House and the Breakers. There are several entrances to the Cliff Walk. The closest to here is Marine Avenue - go south once you get on the path.

The bench is the second most north of four benches in a small plaza. The benches are made of metal and painted black. A small plaque is set on the seat back and have the following words:

"Celebrating Sisters
Marj Packer
Pat Dorkin
Sisters are Blossoms
In the Garden of Life
[Hearts]"
Where is this bench located?: On a small plaza about a quarter mile south of Marine Ave, and along the Cliff Walk

Who is this bench honoring?: Sisters Marj Packer and Pat Dorkin
