  1. Everyone, the post is up for Richard's service. Please use the blog to post that you are attending. Mike, I have posted for you since you indicated your email isn't working on our FB page.

  2. I have called and left a message for Frannie to find out if she is available this day. If she is, I would like to include her for the added percussion element.

  4. I'll do lead since Rob will be out of town. I would think we will do an acoustic set like last Sunday? Less setup time and hassle in my opinion unless Richard requested we go full on. Any idea on how many songs? Also, anyone have anything that they heard Richard say was a favorite that we have done with him?

    1. The songs that have been requested are:

      10,000 Reasons
      Give me Jesus
      I am Free

      Verna wants this to be an upbeat celebration of Richard's life. We need to choose one or two additional songs to honor him. If it's possible to go full-on, that's what I would recommend based on the request the service be upbeat. I know we can be upbeat and acoustic as well, so I'm just throwing it out there. Especially since I'm not a musician on an instrument!

  5. I can do bass. I suggest us to do I Am Free. Richard told me he loved that song.

  6. What was the song that Dominic and Richard sang together - like the first time he ever came up and sang with us? Was it God You Reign?

  9. We want to finalize the last one or two songs. I believe we have a couple suggested above. I would also like to suggest How He Loves Us.

  10. Let's go with How He Loves Us and God You Reign as the last two. Also, we will need time to go over these before the service. Does 5pm work for anyone? That is the earliest I can do. Mike suggested Tuesday night but I won't be off of work until 8:30 or 9 that night.
