[OSList] OS memorial services?

[Lourdes Adriana Diaz-Berrio Doring]

James Sheldon:
Yes I can tell you that  when my dear step father pasted away I ask the
friends and family to meet in a circle and asked them to share what ever
they wanted to say about this moment or about this incredible man and it
was a very powerful way to open the space and to listen to each other. I
was inspired by my OS experiences and it worked very well for us. Is this
the kind of idea you have about  using OS in funerals?
We could used more probably but this took about one hour....
