Thread: Wake in the Cafe

I am suggesting, in consultation with others in the Café that we hold a wake or running vigil for Erin in the Café the Gator Lounge on Friday. I *think* 11am EST is 4pm GMT, so was thinking from then on, people coming and going as they can, and as they can face it.
How about Green & Blacks as mandatory refreshments? Does anyone have any suggestions for drinks.

I'm attending a funeral on Friday - when Erin and her family will also be in my thoughts - so am unable to drop by. ![[Votive]](graemlins/votive.gif)

Erin - you are missed more than you could know. Rest in peace and rise in glory - to provide unrest in the heavenly realms.

I can pop in shortly before the funeral...about 7- 7:30 PST

I'll be there, when I get back from work (usually about 5 - 6pm Fridays). But I'll make a point of spending some time in the hospital chapel at 4.

Well, it's already Friday here where I am- so I've warmed up the bar-stool for yous all.
Here's to Erin. Cheers, because she'd want us to drink deep and not be half-arsed about it.

The other suggestion was, and I forgot to say it in the OP, that we post on here to say when were in and out to show who was involved.

I want to be there, but have big problems accessing the Cafe, so it may not be possible. However, I will be celebrating Communion at 3.00, and will definitely be remembering Erin during that. No one else will know, but God will.

I think the Café is Java, in which case I won't be able to attend, but, can anyone provide instructions on how to get to the Café? I haven't been there in years - probably since Miss Molly left us.

I can't do this properly now, still at w*rk, but if the Café has kicked you all out, it's going to need to reset and that happens every 15 minutes or so. You will be able to get back in, but you have to give it a few minutes.
