Memorials

Some have attained a celestial (or otherwise) address and will not be attending in person. We would, however, like to acknowledge their spiritual presence and provide a moment in which to remember their part of our lives. If you have knowledge of someone having made the penultimate transition, please send information to Shayne at shayne@sprintmail.com  All efforts have been made to make this as accurate as humanly possible.  If you know of a mistake, please contact us.
