For those who are going to be there for the start of calling hours, we will meet at the Wegmans parking lot to ride in together to Keenan Funeral Home. KICK STANDS UP 11:50 am If you arrive at Wegmans early, please find the most open lot possible and one that is away from stores.

Due to the length of calling hours, I will be rotating Ride Captains in charge.  The change in rotation will be announced on site.

Due to road closures around Blue Cross Arena, we need to ride in together for the funeral. The service does not start until 1:00 pm but they requested we be there by 10:45 am with kick stands up from Frontier Field at 10:35 am.  I cannot guarantee your participation if you arrive late.  Please dress for the weather as it expected to be in the upper 80's.  All LEO will be in dress uniform.  Please dress in your best riding gear.
