Memorial Service for My Mother

As promised previously, I am providing an update on the memorial service for my late mother. The memorial service will be held on January 29, at 11:00 AM at First Lutheran Church, 1301 Colley Avenue, Norfolk, Virginia 23517 (located in the Ghent section of Norfolk). Following the service, a reception will follow for those wishing more time with family members attending the service.

I sincerely want to thank all of my blog readers and friends who have been so amazingly supportive. Your post comments, e-mails - and the sweet card from Dave in Pensacola have all meant a great deal to me.

As noted before, friends and readers are welcomed to make a donation in memory/honor of my mother, Marion Hibben Phelps Hamar to a charity of their choice. One charity that I might suggest is Hospice House of the Piedmont (pictured above) where my mother spent her last few days. Contact information is as follows:
