Dear
Members and Friends:
Bob Williamson's Wake and Memorial Service will take place at Nelson Funeral Home, 5149 N. Ashland, Chicago
(at the corner of Ashland and Foster) on SUNDAY,
MARCH 24. The Wake will begin at 3:00 p.
m, with the Memorial Service to begin at 4:00
. Our Chapter Chorus has been asked to participate. We will be singing "T
his Little Light of Mine," "Let There Be Peace on Earth," "From the First H
ello" (quartet), "Irish Blessing," and "Bill Grogan's Goat" (quartet).
Contrary to
our talk at Chapter meeting last evening, the family believes that "Bill G
rogan's Goat" would be appropriate and wanted during the service, because t
he entire service will be a Celebration of Bob Williamson's Life and Legacy
. The quartet should be prepared to sing it when asked by the family. (I
understand there will be a written program, and that probably will tell whe
n "Goat" and the other songs will be sung.
Our Chorus uniform will be black pants an
d Chapter black shirt, with yellow tie. If anyone does not have everything
, call Jim Jarosz at 708-925-5201. But don't stay away
because you do not have the complete uniform; your presence is more import
ant than the uniform.
Nelson Funeral Home will have a warmup room. Someone should a
sk about it when you arrive. Please be there by
3:30 to warm up your voices. You can talk to the family and share reme
mbrances between 3:00 and 3:30.
There will be light re
freshments after the service. There will be an opportunity at that time fo
r my quartet and chorus singing if you wish and if appropriate.
If you know someone
who knew Bob, but may not have received this message, please send it to the
m.
Thanks, a
ll.
Frank Schneider
