Dear Friends, Students, Former Students & Family,

Here it is, finally, all the information you need if you wish to attend the Celebration of Life/Memorial Service for our beloved Michael Tamura who passed away Oct. 24, 2023 in Roseville, California.

Please be sure to read everything if you are attending as there is a correction on something I posted on social media.

Though I am putting this on the public air waves, I would like to mention that this in-person memorial service is for those who actually know Michael personally such as family, friends and close acquaintances, and our students and former students who have attended classes regularly from him at some time or another. If you are not sure if you fit in any of these categories and wish to attend, please call our office and ask (our assistant will ask me and I will give the answer for her to pass on to you.) There is room for 370 people at the venue so if you only casually know Michael or you are a public fan of our radio show or his videos, we would like to invite you to join us for our live-streaming (information below) so you can watch from home if you like. I hope to also have this recorded so it can also be watched later if the time and date do not work for you. Thank you for respecting this.

Here is the information:

This Celebration of Life/Memorial Service is for:

Michael J Tamura

Spiritual Teacher, Clairvoyant Visionary, Healer, Author (of "You Are the Answer") and Radio Show Co-Host of "Living the Miracle with Michael & Raphaelle Tamura"

Parking:

Please car pool as much as you can, thank you. There is a good-sized parking lot, however, it does not accommodate 370 cars and also please do not park in the fire lanes.

Please Note: I accidentally incorrectly posted on our social sites the time for this event a few weeks ago, so please note the real starting time. I had posted is as 2 - 4 P.M. but it is actually 4 - 6 P.M. Pacific Time.

Viewing via Zoom of Facebook Live: Yes, we will be doing this, if everything works as it should. Here are the links (join us no earlier than 15 minutes prior to the event.)

For the Facebook one, it might just be easier for you to go into Facebook and look up Michael Tamura rather than using the this link which requires you to dig up your Facebook Password.



Also, there is a complication in that there is a marathon race happening that day starting in Folsom in the daytime. Here is a note that my friend, Yvonne Donaldson, sent me regarding this. Apparently it's over by 5 P.M. so it might impact your drive to the event if you are located near it. Here is the information with suggestions so you don't get caught in the marathon closures:

There will be some road closures throughout the day, opening back up on a time table, with all roads open by 5pm. 

The UUSS (our venue) will be accessible from all roads to the north all day. 

It's good to be aware, and if at all possible, not book hotels near or around downtown Sacramento. 

Of course there will be detours but maybe it's better to just steer clear of the most impacted areas. 

The recommendation would be to book hotels along the Hwy 80 corridor between Sacramento and Roseville, as there will be no traffic impacted in this area. 

On 12/3, people can use the WAZE app to get information on road closures. 

I truly look forward to having you join us. And please if you have any comments or questions, rather than using this email to write me back, could you please email me separately at michaeltamurainfo@gmail.com ? This will go to my assistant, Debbie's office, who will forward it to me so I can answer you. Thank you!

With Much Love & Many Blessings,

Raphaelle Tamura Michael's wife and co-partner in our spiritual-teaching business
