i was asked by the church secretary if there would be someone who would have something or some words to say about dante from the(this) group that he participated in....any of you wishing to do so can email me directly. Keep in mind its an evening service and it might be best if one person from subchat were able to speak.....

my email again is digitalmuse66@yahoo.com

Sounds like a job for Adam (Silver Fox).

It's very kind and thoughtful of you to invite a Subchatter to address Dante's service. I know the group sees this as an opportunity for closure and mutual support.

I had hoped that you guys here would discuss this amongst yourselves and come up with someone that you felt comfortable with who would express as best he or she could the sentiments felt by this group. With things as difficult as they are right now, I really didnt want to be put into a position of having to choose one over the other and perhaps i didnt make that clear in the original post. Because of time constraints not everyone can speak i wish they could however we would probably wind up with a service that lasted several days....Instead to ensure that the people and friends that dante has developed over the course of his life should be represented by someone who would be able to speak to what he meant to them....a class mate, one of the members from here - subchat, one of his doctors and maybe even one of his teachers....again my email addess is in one of these posts and i can best be contacted that way...

Seriously-- you were quite the spokesperson for us on UR 1 and J00 have been more active in Trips and Outings with these guys well enough to come up with something concise and precise and significant all in 1.

If not you, then Chris... but I think you're more "tied in" to this group than we are, un4-TUNA-tely.

I agree....one of the 'Ultimate Ride' crewmembers should be a representative of the SubChat 'community' as a whole at Dante's service.

Im game (for the speaking part)! But I'm also 2 note that 1 of youse probably had more 'handle time' with Dante and knew more about him than I (so I'll respectfully pass the homeball to some1 who knew him closer).

I'll even be willing to read a prepared statement if youse are shy... (*provided I make it out there on Wednesday).

Is Chris Rivera even aware of this passing??
Is Terrapin or Dave Greenberger willing to do this??

or let's all just saddle up heypaul and batten down the hatches!!

Still Prayin 4 you, mom!

Hello South Ferry bro, yes I heard Friday Night, and it broke my heart I will be there on Wednesday. I'm scared to go because it will hit me like a truck that he wont be coming back, but I must be there, we're like a family. I will see you there.

It's not just the ultimate ride I would be speaking about, if I am chosen, but I will speak about Dante, and mostly about Dante.

If Dante's mother asks me to represent Subchat, then I will have a eulogical statement prepared by Tuesday.

Chris, I have a great feeling that the chapel will be filled with one of the biggest families ever. I have been trying to comprehend about how the railfan community lost one of the youngest, brightest, and most talented individuals; ever. The rock that dropped it's weight at noontime, is still hitting my head.

Sentiments the same here.

But, we still need a spokesperson for the brother man. :)

My point was that you'd be a better candidate given that you spent more time near/around/with him than I ever did (sadly~!).

Dante was one of our 7 riders, so atleast the UR group should have a due representation.
