Ruth,

Many thanks for your good wishes.

The event is now blessedly in the past, all survived, our service was only 2
1/2 hours long, and best of all, Frank somehow made a 180 degree turnaround
from his surly, snotty attitude (towards the Rabbi, yet!) at the dress
rehearsal to being a decent, thoughtful human being (if only for a few hours)
when it was most important.  It was a major miracle.  Perhaps there is hope.
