I so totally understand this decision. I only wish that someone going to the service could leave a red carnation for me. There's a story behind it, and I wish it could happen.

You mentioned the carnation story in one of the other threads and it just shows how awesome a person McCrimmon was.
I'm glad the Wings are going to the funeral, definitely the right thing to do.

Classy move, and I totally understand. Does anyone know if Sundays schedule has changed at all?

It's hard to say where it will be, but if you can find out, it would be sweet to have some of us there.
There will be a time for giving of condolence cards Saturday morning. I plan to do so. They will be given to the family before the service.

I know exactly where that church is, as as much as I'd like to pay my respects I don't know that I'd be able to go for the visitation, it just doesn't feel right. I'm glad the guys are making the trip back here to attend - yes it screws up some plans for the fans but this is far more important.
Thanks Offsides
