Journal entry by Leah Ritsema —
We wanted to update everyone on the arrangements that have been made for Amy's memorial services.
Visitation will be held on Thursday, August 24th from 6-8pm at Zaagman's Memorial Chapel (2800 Burton St. SE., Grand Rapids, Michigan 49546)
Amy's memorial service will be held the following day on Friday, August 25th at Seymour Christian Reformed Church (840 Alger Street SE, Grand Rapids, Michigan 49507). Visitation there from 10-11, with the service from 11-12. There will be a light lunch served immediately following the service in the church basement from 12-1pm.
In lieu of flowers, a donation to Faith Hospice / Trillium Woods or the MIOCA (Michigan Ovarian Cancer Alliance) or even a favorite charity of your choosing would be greatly appreciated. Faith Hospice's staff were absolutely amazing, and our family are so grateful for their compassion and care during Amy's stay with them.
Finally, we have been absolutely overwhelmed by the love and support from so many friends and family, we are all truly blessed! Though there have been many tears, there have also been many laughs as we keep each other close, sharing countless memories.
Pleases feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions regarding the upcoming events.
Thank you,
Greg
