Sad Announcement

We thought many of you would want to know that Mark Ridings' father passed away Dec. 26. He had struggled with congestive heart failure for the past five years and was 70 years old. The funeral service will be at 11:00 on Monday morning, Dec. 29 at Lemley Funeral Home in Oneonta. The family has requested that in lieu of flowers you consider making a donation to the non-profit company that provided hospice to Mr. Ridings. If you wish to do so individually, details may be found at the following website: http://www.newbeacon.org/donations .

The Concert Chorale has arranged to have a potted plant delivered to Mark's home with our corporate condolences. If you wish to send an individual note, Mark's email address is mridings@vhumc.org .

We hope you have all had a wonderful holiday season, best wishes for a properous New Year and see you at rehearsal on January 5.
