Velma's Services in New York and Seattle
Here is the information for the two services. Please spread the word if you are in touch with any of Velma's friends and/or the Rose's Turn crowd. Reposting appreciated. Thank you
Seattle
We are planning a memorial gathering for Velma on Saturday, November 8, at 1:30 p.m., at Washington Hall in Seattle. Everyone is welcome.
There’s no formal officiant. Instead, this is an opportunity for her family and friends to get up and share our memories of Velma. We’re still working on the details of the planning. If you know you’ll want to get up and speak, please tell Vicki, by email at vr@redbird.org. Or if you just want to be with people, please let Vicki know you’re likely to attend so we can get a head-count for food and drink.
Washington Hall is in the Central District, at 153 14th Ave Seattle, WA 98122. We will be in the Lodge Room. The space is wheelchair-accessible and easily accessible by mass transit; there is also a parking lot. We have the room from 1:00 p.m. until 5:00 p.m., including set-up and clean-up time; if you want to come early and help with set-up, please let Vicki know.
RSVPs to Vicki at vr@redbird.org please.
New York
