Here are the details for Gary’s funeral that I’ve been given:
The visitation starts on Saturday, March 8 at 11 AM, with the funeral to follow at 2 PM, at:
Haase-Derrick-Lockwood Funeral Home
800 Park Drive
Lake Geneva, WI 53147
(282) 248-2031
The funeral will follow at 2:00 PM. Word is there will be some kind of gathering afterward, perhaps at the Legion Hall where part of a couple of the earliest Gen Cons were held. (Gary founded Gen Con—my favorite event of the year—as well.)
I’m told it’s open to the public. Barring any disasters, I plan to be there. Anyone else?

I really wanted to be there, but it just does not look like it can happen. Too many things going on that day that are nearly impossible to re-schedule.
There is talk of folks around the world running “old school” games in his honor on Saturday. Its been posted on RPGnet, ENWorld, theRPGsite and various blogs. A fitting tribute to the man for those who cannot make the trip.
