This is the information on Xast's wake and funeral, as I know it:
The family requests that we do not refer to him as Xast, rather, to call him by his birth name, Michael or Mike. Most of his family either doesn't know he preferred a different name, or believes it was a character he played in a LARP. Also, dressing up as if it were a con or a LARP game is not appropriate and would be upsetting to his family. Dress appropriate to a funeral, please.
Overall, just please remember to be respectful and realize that we will have our own space to mourn him in our own way. This is an event with mixed company, and should be treated as such.
The wake and funeral will take place at Forever Oak Hill Funeral Home and Cemetary. 10301 Big Bend Blvd, Kirkwood.
The wake is from 4-8 PM on Friday, April 3. The funeral is at 12:30 PM on Saturday.
PLEASE pass this on to anyone you know who knew Xast.
Also, if anyone knows of a central location where we could all meet up and have like a mini-con on Sunday.. I think that would be a fantastic tribute, and Mel would apprciate it very much. She ould really like to make that happen, so... ideas, please!
