Virginia Memorial

Sat, Nov 8th, 2008 9:23am by dkulp

There will be a memorial mass for Laura in Northern Virginia on November 28, the Friday after Thanksgiving, at 11 AM at St Michael’s Church in Annandale. A reception will follow the service. My intention is to have another event in Virginia primarily for the many hometown friends of Laura’s and her sibs from catholic school and for anyone else who couldn’t make it to Ashfield last month.
If you are interested in participating in the service, I eagerly solicit your reply (dkulp@dizz.org). In addition, if there is interest, there will be an opportunity for anyone who would like to speak to do so during the reception. I also encourage you to bring to the reception any mementos (or Mentos!) that you’d like to share. I’ll have a table for stuff.

    If anyone’s coming from out of town and needs to be picked up or dropped off at the airport, I’ll be happy to help! Call or text me at 703-731-8219. I live right next to Dulles (IAD) but can get to National (DCA) pretty easily as well.

    First, I haven’t visited this website in a little while, so I want to offer my deepest sympathy.
    My mother, Joan Urban, and myself, definitely plan on attending the service and the reception. I am happy PJ found me through facebook to tell me about the service.
    All my love,
    Carolyn

    We plan to attend the Memorial Service at St. Michael’s. Let us know if you’d like any music, either instrumental and/or sung, Heather. Do you have a list of Laura’s favorite(s)–such as “On Eagle’s Wings”?

    Hi,
    I’m a friend of Elena from O’Connell. I just found about Laura. My deepest sympathies to your family. I plan to attend the memorial service.

    I will not be attending the memorial, but my heart and prayers will be with you. Since, I too, lost a sister this year, I especially will be with you in Spirit. Blessings…

    I’ll be there. Please let me know if you need anything – rides to and from airports, the whole deal.
