On August 10 I received the following information about John Isbell's death.

A memorial service is now being planned and will most likely occur at Forest Lawn on Saturday, September 10. No other details are available now; an obituary should appear in the Buffalo News today or later this week.

No obit has appeared (paid or ortherwise) and I have not succeeded in finding any further information about the service.

Does anyone know?

Peter
