Tim wanted to let you all know of his mothers passing. He was one of the early members of VRCC.
It is with great sadness that I must tell you that Devon Samosa passed away on Monday 12 October after losing a battle with her declining health. Devon was loved and will be missed by her family and friends .
The family will be offering a celebration of Devon’s life on Sunday 18 October 2009 and everyone is invited to attend. We will be remembering Devon’s life and wonderful moments shared with family and friends, who are all encouraged to share during the service.
The service will be held on Sunday from 10am thru 2pm in the Pearls Room in the Warner Center Marriott hotel.
http://www.marriott.com/hotels/trave...oodland-hills/ We will be providing a lunch during the celebration and discounted rooms are available for out of towners who wish to attend. Parking is free to attendees.
If possible please let us know before Friday 4pm if you plan to attend and how many (both local and out of town).
In lieu of flowers, Devon would appreciate a donation to one of her favorite organizations in her name:
