Hi all,
Stan, I didn't find any specific stuff about a caravan on the
samba.comdiscussion page - could you please forward us the details?
And to the
vanagon list as well - I've copied them on this email. Stan, if we can do
the after-memorial event at your place, let us know - those who are around
Boston or will have time can probably contribute whatever is needed for
barbecue, etc.
I'd thought of perhaps meeting someplace for breakfast, but that might be
hard with people arriving from many places at different times. Is it okay
with Karen for us to all meet at the funeral home and caravan together?
Could those who expect to be there let someone know - the vanagon list, or
Stan, or if you like me? It probably would be handy to have some idea of
the number of people planning to be there. And the number of vans.
Joy
