Title: For those interested in attending JN Smyth memorial services
Post by: delrod on June 24, 2015, 08:18:07 PM
Dusty and myself will be riding in Sun am. There is a local motel in Kiowa OK, Hiway Inn Express  (918) 432-6131. 60 dollars double bed room. Just felt it was appropriate to ride in for this one.  Doug

Can't come Sunday, but my Dad, Uncle and I are riding to the service Monday. 

Yes, riding would be the appropriate means of transportation to get there.  I'd like to see a parade of bikes personally, but may be a lot to ask.

I am having trouble finding the Church on google maps.  Does anyone know where it's actually located?  Since the service is in the afternoon I will probably head there Monday morning.

Gentlemen:

I am planning to go, but I can't leave Terrell until maybe 1:00 pm.   I'll see if I can get a room at the same place you guys are at.   

Was planning to attend the service on Monday. 

I'm assuming dress code for the service is "bike friendly."  Was planning to wear a Guzzi T-shirt or something, motorcycle boots, etc.  Not suit & tie.

Guys, I am doing everything I can to be there. I had a new career interview thursday and won't get a reply until early next week. Will continue working until I get that reply and asked for monday off. Will ask again about it today.

Plan is to ride down sunday to the Hiway Inn and ride to church with everyone.

Will there be plenty of rooms or should I call and reserve one?

I am planning being there. When is the memorial service? It's only a 2 1/2 hour ride, should be able to get there early.

Thanks, for information.

I got the green light to go, already sent Dusty a note. Will call motel sat. Planning to leave home pretty early sun to try and beat some of the heat. Going to be a great ride. I need it with everything going on right now.
 :bike-037:

I think you might get your wish Luap. Will probably be a pretty good parade. Are the Legion riders going to lead? With them and us, should be a good turn out for JN.

I am at a motel in Okmulgee. Steve said something about a lunch at the church. Do you all know anything about that? Otherwise when do you all plan to be at the church?
