We will start with remembrances, for which we welcome any and all to share a story, a though, a photo or anything they wish to share. We will then scatter his ashes in the Huron River so that he gets one last trip through Ann Arbor. The picnic will follow. This will be a causal event and we encourage children and a party atmosphere.

Hugh is going to join Gene & Majel Rodenberry on a deep space, permanent celestial journey to ?? The flight launches in fourth quarter 2014 by Celestis. If you would like to contribute to launching him, please visit Hugh.xisp.net. As you know, going into space was always his fantasy.

Please share this email announcement far and wide.

If you have requests or idea for honoring Hugh's life, please contact Lesli Daniel. Should you have an interest in showing your respects through flowers, the Family invites you to support his space travel in lieu or a donation to a non-profit of your choice.
