In Memory
Richard Graveline
It is my sad duty to report that Richard Graveline passed away suddenly last week. Burial is Monday, April 28th at the Snellville Historical Cemetery on Wisteria Drive at 11 a.m. His family is planning a memorial service for Richard sometime in June.
Richard was a long-time GMS member who was very active behind the scenes. His love of GMS and his many kindnesses (including bringing brownies to almost every meeting) will be sorely missed and never duplicated. Please keep his family in your thoughts and prayers.

Memorial
The Memorial Service for Richard will be on Wednesday, July 2, 2014; everyone is welcome. There will be a Mass at St. Oliver's Church (on Brooks Road in Snellville) at 11:00 AM. Following the Mass, there will be a reception / memorial service in a reception room at the Church. The reception will probably start at 11:45 or 12:00. There will be some food and wine, and people will have an opportunity to speak and share something. Everyone is welcome to come and remember Richard.Susan Filak, Sunshine Chair
