Memorial Service Postponed

Due to this incredibly difficult fire season, work conflicts for people who wanted to attend, and just plain financial issues, we've had to postpone Mom's memorial service.  I hope I'm not causing anyone additional problems, but the service is two weeks away, US 24 out of Colorado Springs is still closed, and parts of Woodland Park are still evacuated.  There have been a number of small arson fires set throughout Teller County - and although they have all been handled quickly, those conditions add stress. 

I will post again when we are able to reschedule!

Memorial Service for Lorraine Miller

To friends and family -

It was mom's wish that she rest with my sister at Sunnyside Cemetary near Victor, Colorado.  We tried to get her there last fall, but winter arrived in the mountains before plans could be completed.

As the weather changes, I am reminded that things will thaw again in the mountains of Colorado, and Mom can finally be settled. She passed on July 7th, and so I think it would be delightful to move her to Victor, CO on the one year anniversary of her new life. Anyone who wants to share that with us is invited!

I just heard from the Sunnyside Trustee. We have the Victor Center (2nd & Portland, Victor, CO) reserved for July 7th, and we have been approved for access to, and have a plot reserved at, Sunnyside Cemetary, 1 mi west. I don't have a time reserved, we have the whole day available. As I hear from folks about who will attend, we will narrow the time down.

It would be wonderful to share stories, photos, sing songs, or maybe even tell favorite jokes.  Please bring anything you think would help you celebrate knowing her. 

I've added some links to let you know more about where we'll be taking her:
