I cannot go as I have pressing family things I need to take care of. On the early morning news today, KVOA I think, the memorial service was announced. That leads me to believe some media might cover the memorial service, which is great. The wording of the TV announcement bugged me, though...it stated that Mr. Okusako "died while riding his bike". Not was killed, but died, and no mention of a motor vehicle being involved, as though Mr. Okusako were riding along and expired all by himself for no reason.

Both hit from behind by young drivers making stupid decisions. Chuck and Drake were about the same age, loved to bike and loved working with kids.
