In lieu of flowers, the family requests that contributions in his memory be made to St. Mary of the Knobs Catholic Church (5719 St. Mary's Road, Floyds Knobs, IN 47119).
In the near future, a multi-family homegoing and homecoming celebration of souls, both living and passed, will be held at the Love City Campus (old St. Cecilia Church and School) in the Portland neighborhood of Louisville. An announcement with details will be forthcoming.
