Gaylord Cates

Please join us for a memorial service celebrating the life of Gaylord Cates, Saturday, May 23. This celebration will be held in the hospitality room at the Hermitage Shrine Club at 11 a.m. The Mason’s will perform their Masonic Ceremony in his honor; lunch and fellowship will follow.

We know that the hospitality room is off of the club area, but we ask that you respect our wishes to keep this celebration alcohol-free as we want it to remain family friendly.

Dad remained the life of the party, but was very proud to be sober since October 2017, and rededicated his life to the Lord just a few months before his passing.

Due to the recent Covid pandemic, we were unable to have a funeral service and would love the opportunity to come together. A limited number of masks will also be available for those who wish to use them.

We also want to say thank you to those who have reached out with your condolences during this very difficult time. We truly hope to see all of dad’s many friends and share memories!
