Personal note from Sam's/Dean's Sister Ivy

UPDATE!
Dear Friends-This site isn't a viable RSVP location. Just know that LOADS of friends will be attending the festive celebration memorial! I want to meet those that I haven't yet had the pleasure of......so please find me.
Because I'm flying in, staying at a hotel & being ULTRA cautious, I won't hug you like I wish & will hope everyone is careful. Let's share the memories & not the COOTIES!
Mike & I will be wearing a mask, even though we've had 4 Covid shots. (My brother was fully vaxxed & the coroner called me with a negative Covid result.)
Also, masks are required at the buffet please!!
Thank you for all the well wishes. I will try to keep it together even with my broken heart. oxoxo
