In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation (or as Shane called the tip jar at his shows-"the love offering") at the service so that a scholarship can be established to benefit local students pursuing a degree in music. If you cannot attend and would like to make a donation for the scholarship fund, an announcement will be made later on how to donate.
