I recently posted the passing of Dave Simons in this blog... Which can be seen here: (Blog Post). My thanks this morning to Stacey Aragon who messaged me news of the upcoming Memorial Service for Dave. The following was posted in Daniel Best's Blog yesterday, Saturday June 27th, 2009: "For all of those people in New York who wish to attend Dave's memorial service, here's the details. Dave's memorial service is scheduled for Sunday July 19th at 12:30pm. It will be held at The Church of Scientology 227 W. 46th St. Manhattan, NY 10036. Phone 212-921-1210. Dave's family have requested that in lieu of flowers, donations to be made to the organizations that meant the most to Dave. At the top of the list is Hero Initiative. If you wish to donate in Dave's name, follow the link and go right ahead. You can find out more over at Dave's Facebook entry. the HERO Initiative are also planning a tribute. In this case they'll be running Dave's last unfinished work, details can be found (at their web site). Dave was working on the script and was getting ready to pencil the page when he passed away, Hero will be running the script along with a tribute by one of their staff members, so be sure to buy the book when it appears. I can't help but still miss Dave. I keep expecting to see another email popping up, but time heals everything, albeit slowly. It's a funny ole world, innit?" The above comes from Danny's Blog post at: http://ohdannyboy.blogspot.com/2009/06/dave-simons-memorial.html In regards to the HERO Initiative, here is their post regarding Dave's Unfinished Symphony that Danny refers to in his blog post: http://heroinitiative.blogspot.com/2009/06/unfinished-symphony-dave-simons.html I wanted to take time out today to note this Memorial Service for Dave. Since we are on the West Coast, we won't be attending. However I did want to publicize this for those that are in the New York area and can attend... Note from Michael: Because of links leading to non-eBay pages, and with eBay's policy of not allowing those 'hot' direct links, this will be another one of our blog posts that will not be found in our eBay formatted blog version. Additionally this is a 'non-commercial' blog post and not applicable to that blog format.
