Hello, I know everyone is probably wondering what we are doing about my Dad's service. As it is, the plan is to have a memorial to celebrate his life sometime early next year. We were thinking around his birthday in mid-February but can absolutely do it sooner. We do not have a date set yet. We are still figuring out his current transport from the funeral home. All of this has been pretty overwhelming for our immediate family and we are still trying to figure a lot of things out. We do not believe Dad would want a funeral service, and instead would want others to celebrate his life in happiness, love and joy. We are going to respect his wishes and once we have things set, we will encourage others invited to share stories and happy or important memories they have shared with him. Thanks to everyone again for all the support and kindness during this immensely difficult time. Also, it is absolutely okay for others to be sad and share thoughts, memories or feelings that may make them sad or cry. By no means are we trying to discourage any emotions of loved ones.
