The Public Visitation on Fri. 2/26 is a 'walk through visitation' ONLY, gifted for the Public to pay tribute ONLY - NO family will be in attendance! What IS being ALLOWED is a constant stream of HEALTHY attendees, in groups of two (2), to just BRIEFLY do a 'walk through visitation', briefly view/give their respects and leave, during the 12noon-5:00PM TIME period ONLY. Strict social distancing MUST be maintained inside & outside at ALL times (NO touching/hugging/handshaking, ONLY elbow bumping briefly if at all), and there is NO guarantee of entry. So during that time period, in groups of 2 with your masks on (preferably wearing 2 masks/double-masking), you will be allowed to come to the front door/main entrance on Fisher Av., get hand sanitizer, read & sign the contact release & list, then sign the family's register book (NOTE: please preferably bring your own pen for All signing), walk through maintaining social distance, briefly view, and then immediately leave the building/exit through different side exit & premises (you will literally be in the funeral home for just a few brief minutes). Once 5:00PM comes, NO one else will be admitted inside and ALL must leave the funeral home & vicinity.

Please leave written condolences now herein on the Memory Wall to express your sorrow, share your memories, and as an expression of sympathy & way to communicate with/offer comfort to the family, that they and others may see, and may be a lasting tribute in his honor, whether you're able to attend or not. Definitely Please SIGN IN on the Memory Wall as a virtual way of signing the register book, especially if choosing to stay safe/not able to sign in person.
