\nIf I could make one suggestion: please, please, please be patient if you attend any of these ceremonies. There will undoubtedly be a great number of people there, if the response Mrs. Wright and D.J. services last summer were any indication. I heard from a lot of people back then who complained that they weren’t able to get into the service, or weren’t able to speak directly with the family. Please, please understand that the family is dealing with a great deal of emotion; four services will be extremely exhausting, and I assure that even though they will not be able to speak to everyone personally, they appreciate your love and prayers.
\nThank you all for your prayers for the Wright family; I know they appreciated them all.
