The celebration service for Gary LaPorta will take place at the Falls Church Episcopal (115 E. Fairfax St., Falls Church) from 10:30 a.m. – noon on Saturday, March 9. Guests are asked to wear blue at the service as that was Gary’s favorite color and he would not want everyone in black. In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to be made to Creative Cauldron.

If anyone wishes to send a condolence card to his daughter it can be mailed to Connie Warnock at 1162 Hales Ford Road, Moneta, VA 24121. Refreshments will be served afterwards.
