A Dixon Patch commenter shared the following:

"Uniform requirements are only for Legion Chapter 208 Riders. Everyone else may wear what they would for an afternoon ride. I would hope they would 'dress to impress,' but thats not required. We do not want to exclude anyone wishing to ride in respect of Ray."

The reception is hosted by both Chapter 208 and Post 208.

SCHEDULE:

  • 12:30 - Service for Ray Lein at the Methodist Church - 209 N Jefferson St, Dixon
  • 1:45 - Funeral procession to the Veterans Cemetery on Midway Rd.
  • 2:30 - Internment

Reception will be at the American Legion after internment. Volunteers are needed to be at the hall @ 10:45am on Thursday for Set up. Than if you wish to go to the Funeral service that should leave plenty of time to go.

Great to see the 4th graders getting ready for their 5th grade camp at Alliance Redwoods. I took myRead More 6th graders there for many years and Alliance has an outstanding program that keeps the kids focused on environmental education and stewardship. The night hike through the redwoods was always their favorite (along with the zip line). Note: No need to bring snacks as the dining hall meals has everything you will need, but you may want to bring some extra money for the gift shop. Dan Mattingly/Retired Teacher

Thanks for the post Dean. The Dixon VFW has contributed several thousand dollars so far to bothRead More homes in Dixon and will be contributing a lot more in the future for these Vets. The housing program is managed by the North Bay Coummity Action Council (formerly known as the Fairfield/Suisun CAC). The Vets are very grateful for all the community support.
