Mean Dog Memorial June 29th in WV

[Squidley]

Hey All,

 

I wanted to take a minute and let you folks know of a memorial ceremony that will be held for Mark Still (AKA Mean Dog) in New Manchester WV on June 29th. This will be held at the New Manchester Volunteer Fire Dept. between 12 noon and 2 pm. I have talked with Nancy and Lonna has also talked with Marks daughter, Missy. They would love for as many of you that can attend to come over and spend the afternoon with them.

 

This will be the Sunday that Skid's ride in ends, so it would be real nice if folks that were already in the area could stop in. I am planning on being there after the Skid in and if anyone would be interested in a group ride heading north from Jeff's place in Gassaway. It's about 175 miles from Jeff's place up in the north handle of the state, this is where Marks family is located.

 

Looking forward to seeing as many VR members as I can, Nancy and the family would greatly appreciate it also. Here's the complete address to the Fire station...

We'll be at Skid's meet so going to Mark's memorial ceremony shouldn't be a problem as it's on the way home.

A great way to honor him.

I talked with with Nancy and Marks daughter Missy the other night, everything is still a go. They moved back the start time to 11am which will be helpful for those with miles to drive to get home.

I talked with Missy and she has mentioned to me that the Fire Dept. is right on the main drag in New Manchester on route 8. She has stated to me that she will have a Cycle parked out in front of it and also a sign so we have a harder time missing it I will try to get there a bit earlier and have my Venture out front also.

Looking forward to seeing folks there and she said to mention that there will be food to eat. I had mentioned to her to put up a donation can to cover their costs on the food and if you would like to donate that would be easier on them. I also want to mention that there is a donation page for Mark on the St Judes website. So if you want to give something and can't attend they would be most grateful for you to donate to that fine establishment.

Everyone be safe and we'll see you either at Skids or in new Manchester
