Memorial services for my mother

We will be honoring my mother on Wednesday May 24th at the Chapel of the Chimes on Mission Blvd. in Hayward, CA. Everyone is welcome to join us, but please, do not wear black. My mother’s favorite color was purple, and so we will be wearing that instead.

Services start at 1:30pm.

1:30pm to 2:30pm open casket visitation for those who need to see her and say goodbye

2:30pm to ? closed casket memorial services with burial to follow

After that we will return to our house for a party in my mother’s honor. This is a party, not a wake. My mother would be very upset if we didn’t try to laugh and remember the good times =)

  1. Tom,

    Because I have a spirited 2.5 year old son, I won’t be attending your moms service. I would however like to send flowers or contribute to an organization that was important to her. Of course this would be done in honor of her.

    Take Care,
    Michelle

  2. I would like it if you made a small donation to a diabetes-based charity or organization in my mother’s honor. Thank you, Michelle. =)
