Wake Forest is reporting that Maya Angelou’s family has decided to hold a memorial service for the poet at Wake Forest University’s Wait Chapel on Saturday, June 7 at 10 a.m.
This will not be the only celebration as the family will plan additional celebrations of her life in other cities. Her son, Guy B. Johnson, will release information at a later date.
It will be a closed service for family and friends only. Wake Forest University will livestream the service for the public at go.wfu.edu/angeloumemorial
