Email: Saying Goodbye
To: Xavier School Staff, Students & Alumni
From: Jean Grey
Date: 2/21 (backdated to Sunday)
Subject: Remembering Charles Xavier
Xavier's School Family,
Funeral services for Charles Xavier will be held on campus on the afternoon of Tuesday, February 23. All classes after 12pm will be suspended so that teachers and students can attend if they so wish. This will be a private funeral service, open only to members of the school community and a select few of Charles's personal friends. He will be laid to rest in the Xavier family mausoleum in the small private cemetery belonging to his estate. We ask that you do not invite outside guests to attend the service both as a crowd control measure and out of respect for the solemnity of the occasion. Because he was a much beloved man in the world at large, a more public memorial service will be held this coming weekend where others can pay respects to this great man we all knew and loved. I encourage you all to attend. Our community needs a moment to grieve and be together in our time of loss. Sincerely, Jean Grey |
