Lady Cranefly and I went up to Portland over the weekend for the Jay Lake Live Wake.
A few very close friends of his opted (understandably) not to attend the event because they just couldn't handle the morbidity (among them, his own 15-year-old daughter, and in hindsight it would have been very very difficult for her to sit through all of what transpired). But a lot of people did come. An awful lot of people. Rather than say more, let me just provide a link.
