Memorial service for Michigan wing walker Todd Green to be held Thursday

A memorial service is scheduled for Thursday in Michigan for the wing walker who died after falling during the air show Sunday at Selfridge Air National Guard Base in Macomb County.

The memorial for Todd Green of Ann Arbor will be at 1 p.m. at American Legion Post 117, 203 Adrian Street in Manchester, about 60 miles west of Detroit, according to the International Council of Air Shows.

Selfridge officials said Monday that they are working with the Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board to investigate.

The Green family expects to also establish a memorial fund in his memory later this month. Details will be provided through the council’s Web site, www.airshows.aero. For more information about the memorial, call American Legion Post 117 at 734-428-8500.
