Patricia, Michelle, and Dahlia invite the beloved family and friends of Michael Shelton McGehee to join them in his celebration of life - to gather, to remember, and to celebrate him.

Logistical Notes: The Program for the day is included on this site. There is bit of driving between locations - Bogalusa and Covington, Louisiana (approximately 40 mins). The family graveside memorial will take place in Bogalusa at Michael's family cemetery and the celebration of life event will take place in Covington. (This is due to available facilities.) Attendees for the day, whether at the memorial service, or the celebration of life, will make their own overnight accommodations and transportation arrangements, as needed.
