My dad was almost 97 years old.  He  was a WWII Veteran, a group of men who are rapidly disappearing.  I would like to honor him with your presence.  He passed away last night, and we are rushing the funeral service because we are trying to beat the rain. I apologize for the short notice, but sincerely hope that you will be able to attend the service.  Because of the week-end, we are having difficulty contacting the honor guard. HOPEFULLY,
Sandra Hill
