Warren's (Early_S_Man) Funeral arrangements set

Warren's services have been set for Saturday 1/5 at 2:00 CST. Services will be at:

Bethel Church of Christ
3090 Farm Road 1001
Mount Pleasant, TX 75455
(903) 577-1679


Flowers can be sent to:

Bates-Cooper Funeral Home
2805 S. Jefferson
Mailing Address: Rt. 9 Box 1865
Mount Pleasant, Tx 75455
Telephone: (903) 572-3621
Fax: (903) 572-3620

I'll be leaving Dallas around 9:00AM. If any of you want to drive along, I'd be glad to caravan. I'm sure Warren would love to look down and see a flock of 911's at his final farewell.

Mark

Mark,

I posted this idea in a different thread, but thought it would be appropriate here as well.

Was talking with my dad earlier this evening, (While not officially a Pelican, dad's been folowing the threads regarding Warren, just like the rest of us). Dad's idea was for all of us pelican, worldwide, to turn their headlights on, in whatever car we happen to be driving, on the day of Warren's services. For the whole day.

A great way to honor and show a tribute to a man who has given so much to so many.

Randy

Headlights on in southwest Indiana. It's nice and clear today so I will take my 3.2 out for a drive in Warren's memory.

Will definately have my headlights on for him in Raleigh, and Chapel Hill, NC.

It was b/c of him that my brights dont turn on when I am using the turn signals. He saved me time, money, and grief in many projects. He will be dearly missed...

Headlights will be on here in NW Indiana, but sadly I won't be able to drive either Early 911 due to the weather.

Mark,

When you have time could you post some photos of Warren? Maybe you could borrow and scan photos from his sister. I have never seen a photo of him and would really enjoy putting a face with a screen name. Thanks again for all your efforts on his behalf.

Brian,
I spoke with Warren's sister for a couple of hours last night. She's really a delightful person as was her brother. I'll ask for some pictures to scan and I also told her we would all still like to know more about who he was.

Kurt - that's great news. I'll be there between 10:30 and 11:00. I'll call you later.

Many folks now have brighter headlights via Warren's posts on headlight conversion relay wiring.
100W and a flash or 2 in your honor.

Mark and Kurt,
Thank you very much for your efforts in organizing everything over the last couple of weeks. I had a thought today about an "In Memory of Early_S_Man" sticker with his avatar. I did not know Warren, but he certainly was well known and appreciated. Perhaps the proceeds over and above the sticker costs could go to a CF fund in his memory.
