Meet at Shelter 2 staging area at 2pm to be ushered to David Gardiner's military service. Thank you for understanding the family's grief and giving us room to support each other privately before and during the service. There will be time and room for us to greet and share with everyone after the service, either at the reception or in the parking lot (as we are not allowed to stay in the cemetery). We have a STRICT TIME LIMIT of 30 minutes and we are not allowed to linger there, so as dad would say "we'll continue at the next location!" (reception) There is a Printable version of the Funeral Program: https://docs.google.com/docum… (it's my Google Drive--Rachel)
I didn't think I had Youtube up in time but it looks like I have it at the last minute. I'm gonna add it but I have FB as a backup and may do both. This is the link for FB: https://fb.me/e/3Rn3kdkWD (unable to add it to the link website provides because FB wouldn't give me an embed link! but this url will take you there, and you don't need a FB profile to view.) -
