If you are planning on attending the burial, please be aware that there is currently about 4 inches of snow on the ground so the cemetery has let us know that the roads are slick (this is a very odd winter.) If you don't have all wheel drive or 4 wheel drive and are concerned about getting to the burial, consider just attending the dinner which starts at about 3pm at Keenans. Stay safe!
