Vince Adametz virtual remembrance, 2021-02-07

I’m going to [attempt to] host a virtual memorial/remembrance for my Dad on Sunday, February 7th, at 3:00pm EST (noon PST, 20:00 UTC, pick your time zone :)). I’ll be using zoom, which I hope will be easy for everyone to get into: you should be able to join right in your browser via a link I’ll provide; be prepared to tell your browser that it’s ok to use your camera and microphone, if you choose to appear or speak.

If you haven’t already gotten an Email from me, leave a reply here with your Email address (it won’t be shown publicly) and I’ll get you the information.

Please pass this along to anyone you know who might be interested, and if you know someone who may need a bit of technical help that you can provide, please do so.

Thank you, and I hope to see you all on the 7th.

Back before all heck broke loose on the world, I had tried to have my Dad over at the house for a day about once a month. We’d play some dominoes, do a small jigsaw puzzle, watch the birds and the deer, I’d cook something for dinner. When ideas were floated at my Dad’s assisted living home about how residents might be able to go out to visit family over the holidays, I started to think how that could work. One challenge would be transportation, as my Dad had started using a wheelchair.

Today the USPS solved that problem in a way that I would have preferred otherwise.

He’ll be here at the house, above the fireplace, until I can safely get him with Mom.
