Sorry to all about my late post. I was never the one to organize or bring people together like Glen. But...
New Details for Escorting Glen to funeral and Celebration of Life. All escorts will meet and stage at Team Ghilotti Yard, 2531 Petaluma Blvd. South, Petaluma. At 7am, all will leave yard behind the transport carrying Glen, and the rollback carrying Glen’s last mission. All will head south to San Rafael, and everyone but those two vehicles will exit in Terra Linda to park at the lot across from the Veteran’s Building. There will be a bus waiting to take all wishing to attend the funeral to St. Raphael’s Church. The bus will leave at 8:30am and again and finally at 9:15am. After the funeral, all will be bused back to Terra Linda, where all will be joined by the family members before starting the procession back to Petaluma. We will stop by the Team Ghilotti yard, where we will be joined by the slow movers (tractors, antiques, tanks, etc.,) before continuing down the blvd., all following the same route, behind the transport’s lead. We will progress down Washington to Fairgrounds Drive, where the Celebration of Life will be held until 5pm. All big rigs will continue past the fairgrounds to enter southbound 101, returning to Team Ghilotti’s yard, where they will be shuttled back to the fairgrounds for the Celebration.
I hope to see you all there on April 6th. Please help me with a talley for reservations for seats on the bus for those that would like to attend the funeral @ 707-685-3554. Pat Ghilotti

Pat and the Ghilotti Family,

I would very much like to be there, however, my circumstances here in Mexico preclude my attendance. The Service and Tribute Parade is a marvelous way to honor your loved one and our special friend. Glen meant so much to me and I was so honored to be his friend. I will certainly be there in spirit when the time comes and I treasurer every moment that I shared with you and Glen.

We salute you Glen!

Pat and Ghilotti Family,
Like Jan, myself and a lot of Glen's other farther away friends will not be able to make it Friday. We will be there in prayer and spirit. Glen's friends are spread across the country and indeed the world. He had a big backyard.
God Bless,
Roger

Hi, Cattrick.
Thank you for those details. I won't be able to attend but I will surely be thinking of all of you and of Glen on the day. I suspect that there will be a LOTTT of people attending, testament to a BIG man with a BIGGG heart.

I first met Glen at BSOT, 2008, and worked with him on six shows after that. It was always a pleasure to work with him and to swap experiences with him.

Please pass on my condolences to his home family, his Team Ghilotti family, his Cat collector family and all who attend? Thank you.

Just my 0.02.

You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.
