Family and friends of Judge Kaye Tertzag will host the Eighth Annual Tertzag Tribute Dinner from 5 to 9:30 p.m. on Thursday, February 23. Tertzag passed away on Feb. 4, 2009, having established a legacy of integrity and service to the State of Michigan, as well as a great example of love and devotion to his family and legion of friends. The dinner will be held at the Park Place Banquet Hall, 23400 Park St. in Dearborn.
The Tertzag Tribute Dinner Committee is pleased to announce that Wayne County 23rd District Court Judge Geno Salomone is the 2017 recipient of the Purple Sport Coat Award. Salomone, a lifelong resident of Taylor, was elected to the bench in 2000. Since that time, he has implemented a “court in the high school” program and also started a drug treatment court for defendants addicted to drugs or alcohol.
Michigan Supreme Court Justice David Viviano will be this year’s Tertzag Tribute Dinner keynote speaker. Viviano has been on the Michigan Supreme Court since 2013. He previously served as chief judge of the Macomb County Circuit and Probate Courts, where he was responsible for the administration of one of the largest trial courts in Michigan.
The evening will close with a Sambuca toast, a tradition started at Judge Tertzag’s memorial by his daughter, Kara Tertzag Lividini. Attendees are encouraged to wear purple to the event; those wearing purple will be entered into a drawing for a door prize.
