Should there be a live service to mark Jedi Memorial Day?

How I feel about ALL "holi"days...

What I will do I think is provide an opportunity for those present to name people if they feel called to do so. I had not particularly planned to read out names myself but if anyone cannot attend or simply wishes to name someone whilst staying anonymous themselves, PM me the name and I will try to find a way of including them

Uh... Shouldn't it be nameless and cover everyone who's dead?

Not trying to crash the party but, uh, you know, crashing it anyway...

You're the one posting names of particular people! :laugh:

You can do both you know...name people and remember those who are not named out loud.

I wasn't planning on naming, it just seemed that at least 3 different people have posted here mentioning specific people as though they ought to be named...

Again, I know I keep mentioning the Christian Church despite that fact that it has nothing to do with us, but it is a frame of reference for me because I'm so used to the way they do things...every service we pray in the intercessions for a specific list of named people, followed by all unnamed people...along the lines of: 'We pray for Joe, Tom, Jane, Claire, and any others known to us whom we now name in the silence of our hearts'.

I only mentioned Patty's husband because steve f was mentioned... I dont know what Patty's hubby died from, and wasn't a member during his life (apparently was absolute rubbish with computers), but he was posthumously made a honorary Knight of TOTJO.
