__________________________________________
I visited with the Funeral Director yesterday. There is no confirmation on when Spc Winegeart's body will arrive in Houston. Once that is known I will be able to post funeral date. The service time is definitely at 11:00 am.
The staging area will be at Wal-Mart in Lumberton at 9:00 am. Kick stands will go up at 9:20 am.
Here are the directions to Wal-Mart:
Coming from Houston.......
IH 10 East once in Beaumont stay to your right 2 lanes and take Hwy 69/96/287 (aka Eastex Freeway) towards Lufkin.
Stay on Hwy 69/96/287 through Beaumont. You will cross over Pine Island Bayou. Once you pass Keith Rd exit, start moving into your left lane.
Take Hwy 69 towards Kountze.
You will cross through the intersection Hwy 421 and Hwy 69. (Landmark Exxon Station on the corner)
Continue on Hwy 69 and Wal-Mart will be on your RIGHT across from Lumberton High School.
Coming from the North down Hwy 96
Once in Lumberton come to Hwy 421 and turn RIGHT. (Landmark Morris Moore Used Car)
Take Hwy 421 to Hwy 69 and turn RIGHT.
Continue on Hwy 69 and Wal-Mart will be on your RIGHT across from Lumberton High School.
Again as soon as I know the day of the service I will post it.
Thanks,
Sandra
The family has graciously accepted our invitation to honor this Hero. Details of the services for Spc. Winegeart are still pending.
