Tentative plan is to conduct the funeral in Fresno, CA starting February 12 ~ 18.2011; thereafter, if MN/WI are ready then viewing will be scheduled for approximately 2 days each prior to the burial; of which may be at Arlington Cemetery, if permitted; if not then it will be transported back to Southern California at the purchase plot the general had already purchased.
