The funeral service for Mike McEwen, who lost his battle with cancer Sunday, will be held at noon Friday, Nov. 2, at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, 1300 East Valley Road.

McEwen was the longtime project manager for the Santa Barbara Community Housing Corp., owners of the Faulding Hotel and Hotel de Riviera as well as more than a dozen apartment buildings and properties providing affordable housing for very low-income Santa Barbara County residents.

In lieu of flowers, tax-deductible donations can be made in McEwen’s name to The Friendship Paddle, benefiting the McEwen family, at 920 Garden St., Santa Barbara 93101, or to any preferred charity.
