[read more] A public memorial service for Derek K. Miller who passed away on Tuesday, May 3rd, 2011.
Everyone is invited to this kid-friendly event at the Granville Island Stage. The venue is located in the heart of Granville Island, right next to the Market and easily accessed by walking, aquabus, biking, transit or car.
*NOTE: I have changed the Event time to 1:00pm to reflect the time that the Granville Island Stage will open for guests. This will give everyone a chance to meet other guests and have an opportunity to find a seat once the theatre doors open. Please be sure to arrive early enough to get a seat.
The agenda will include some words and music by friends and colleagues, and attendees will have the chance to share their own memories of Derek.
Event Times:
1:00pm - Doors will open to the Venue
1:30pm - Theatre will be opened for seating
2:00pm - Memorial Service will begin
Derek's writings on his blog have generated worldwide interest, you can read about him in his own words:
