All are welcome, including. non-catholics, however this event is typically for very close friends and family.

Please arrive by 5:00 p.m. During this time you may share your condolences with the family and others present, to give the bereaved the opportunity to receive support during this difficult time.

About 6:00 p.m. the Rosary Prayer will begin and most often it lasts about thirty minutes. Please bring a rosary if you have one, if not, rosary beads will also be provided and a program of the prayers will be available.

The Rosary is a profound source of comfort and spirituality for many of us. Its meditation on scripture and petitioning to our holy mother console us in times of need.

All are welcome, including. non-catholics. Please arrive and be seated inside the church by 10:45 a.m. The catholic funeral takes place within the mass and is about an hour and a program will be available. There will be a reception immediately following in the church hall.

At the funeral liturgy, the Church gathers with the family and friends of the deceased to give praise and thanks to God. It is an act of worship, and not merely an expression of grief.

There will be no cemetery or graveside service.

This Irish Wake is open to all friends and family of Kevin. The event will be an "open-house" from 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and food and drink will be served. You may come at any time and stay as long or short as you would like.
PLEASE RSVP TO THIS EVENT

Kevin said he didn't want anyone to cry over him, and instead to celebrate the times shared together. He always wanted an Irish wake with all his family and friends present.

Typically an Irish wake is held in a pub or other gathering places, and they include music, dance, and food. Many modern Irish wakes involve telling stories about the departed and gathering for one final party in their honor.

We'd love to see you dress to represent where you know Kevin from such as LAX referee stripes or pickleball apparel. You may also choose to be inspired by his Hawaiian shirt or tie-dye style and wear the same. Any St. Patrick's accessories in your attic, that works too! Of course, any other semi-casual attire would be appropriate.

Please do not send flowers to this event.
