Visitation will be held 5:30pm to 7:30pm Tuesday, June 8, 2010 at Harper-Morris Memorial Chapel with Rosary to be prayed at 5:30pm.
Mass of Christian Burial will be held 10:30am Wednesday, June 9, 2010 at St. Stephen's Roman Catholic Church with Rev. Fr. Hector R.G. Perez, S.T.D. celebrant. Entombment will follow at Holy Cross Mausoluem.
