Hello Everyone, This is Will Crane (Char's son), hoping we see all of you at the Church in Shoreline on Saturday, May 4th form 10-1. Please feel free to bring a dish, if you wish OR come as you are, simply to enjoy a lighthearted morning of sharing and caring for our dearly departed CharDar and her daughter Debbie. At 11:30 Pastor Tom will say a little something and introduce myself, sister Rhonda and our niece, Anna, to start the very casual sharing and remembrance of both Dearly Departed! Live music and vocals provided by Cousin Steve Lamkin and Family. We hope to see you there! Thank you and God bless everyone!
