Good afternoon everyone. Thanks to all of you for your prayers and support over the past few months since Mom's passing. You were all part of her family and I know she misses you dearly.

Attached is an invitation to Mom's funeral scheduled for December 8 at 3:00 PM at Arlington National Cemetery. I also have included additional details around the day's logistics, which include the chapel service, the graveside interment, and the reception after.

Please also feel free to forward this on to anyone who you think I may have missed (this went out to the bah riders and bah sag groups.

We hope you can join us in celebration of Mom. If you are planning on attending, please RSVP to me via email or feel free to text me at (703) 915-0726 so we can adequately plan for the reception attendance.

Charlie and Katie Inman

Mom's burial will be on Thursday, December 8 at 3:00 PM EST.  A reception will immediately follow. We hope you can make it.

Below is basic information about the service and logistics. We plan to keep you informed with additional details, by posting to this site.

Chapel Service: The events will start at 3:00 PM sharp at the Old Post Chapel at Ft. Myer.

• The address is 204 Lee Ave, Fort Myer, VA 22211. 
  • This service is led by the U.S. Army and they are very punctual. Guests must arrive no later than 2:30pm.
  • Please note that this chapel is located on Joint Base Ft. Myer/Henderson which is an active military base. Therefore, ALL attendees 16 and older MUST have a valid IDto enter the base (that means each person 16 or older in a vehicle), and your car is subject to inspection upon arrival. Please allow extra time for this process. We suggest you arrive between 1:45 - 2:15 at the gate to allow ample time for inspection and then driving to the chapel.
  • We anticipate the chapel service taking 30 minutes.

• Please note that you will NOT head directly to the main ANC gate, but rather directly to the chapel on Ft. Myer.

• You can find out more details by visiting the Chapel page on ANC's website here: https://www.arlingtoncemetery.mil/Funerals/Funeral-Information/Visiting-Clergy-Guide/Chapel-Services

Graveside Portion:

• Immediately upon completion of the chapel service we will DRIVE to the graveside for the burial.
• The procession will be led by the Funeral Director from Arlington National Cemetery.
• There will be parking along the road next to the grave, but you may need to walk a bit depending on the amount of attendees. 
• Dad's grave, where Mom will be buried, is in Section 55. If you do not make it to the chapel service, you can meet us at Section 55 for the Graveside Portion.

Reception:

• Immediately following the Graveside Portion we will head to the Officer's Club back on Ft. Myer, near the Old Post Chapel, for a reception.
• The address is 214 Jackson Ave, Fort Myer, VA 22211.
• We will NOT have an escort by the Funeral Director from the burial site to the Officer's Club, but it shouldn't be too difficult to get to as you can navigate back up to the club through the cemetery.

Information for Out of Town Guests:

Hotel\Lodging: If you are traveling from out of town, you should be able to find affordable rooms at the Hilton Garden Inn Arlington Courthouse Plaza, which is 1.1 miles away from Arlington National Cemetery.

Air Travel: The closest airport to DC, ANC, and the hotel is Reagan National Airport (DCA). It is about a 5 - 10 minute ride from the airport to the hotel. If you aren't able to fly into DCA, Washington Dulles International (IAD) is about 30 miles away from DC. It will have many more flight options, but you will either need to take a cab, Uber/Lyft, or rent a car. You could also take the Metro Bus from IAD to Rosslyn for approx. $8\rider, and then from Rosslyn take the Metro to Courthouse (1 stop). The hotel is about 2 blocks from the Courthouse Metro, all downhill:).
