Keith’s memorial service will be on Thursday, December 29, 2011 at 3:00. I will provide the name and address of the location as soon as I get it from Rabbi Hyman.
I am meeting with the funeral home tomorrow to prepare to have him cremated.

Or for credit card donations, please use this link: http://pages.teamintraining.org/nj/sleephol12/gobarbgo Barbara personally raises funds for the organization through Team in Training and was a very import resource for me. She ran the Nike 1/2 Marathon in San Francisco this last October in honor of Keith. I intend to do the same come this next October – well walk, maybe run a little. So don’t be surprised if I ask for your support next fall.
Thank you all for the messages. Although I am not emotionally able to focus on them too closely, my phone does sing with Facebook chimes and text alerts. It makes me smile even if the poor battery on the phone is almost done. Keith would have been amazed at the love and support. I know I am. The nights have already been the hardest to get through and last night was painful. I’m trying to calm myself for tonight. I know I can do it. I also know it won’t be easy.
Hold your spouses, your children, your family, your friends close to you, always let them know you love them – for Keith.
Love
Cherish
