I got an e-mail from Steve with details for the services. Thought I'd pass it along.

John,
Please let everyone know there will be visitation at Bevis Friday night from 6-8 pm.
The funeral service will be at Roselawn off Piedmont at 11 am Saturday.
Tell them we apologize for a funeral on a fishing day and will understand if fishing takes precedence.
Thanks,
Steve

He also told me earlier that his Mother had requested that donations be made to Hospice, rather than send flowers.
