I just got off the phone with Cherie and she has decided on the date for Mardy's service. On October 24th at 11 AM - 3 PM, Cherie will hold the memorial service for Mardy at the Darian residence. Everyone is invited and the garden will be open to share one last time stories and admire his hard work. She hopes to see everyone there. Please do not bring anything per her request. Drinks and sandwiches will be served. 

Address: 990 Quail Trail Rd, Vista, CA 92081

Thanks for Heads up.  I went to my first ever Palm Mtg at his House in July, and got to talk to him and his lovely wife for about 15 min.  I was in process of writing him a letter thanking him for his time and giving a young beginner like myself such inspiration and knowledge however I did not get to finish and send before his passing.  I will give his wife the letter.  I feel honored to have got the chance to meet such a great man, never mind the garden.  Been at this palm thing for just 5 months, but I think meeting him and hearing his stories albeit I've only heard a few, you could feel his passion and it will line on through everyone that got to meet him.  I'll be there.
