Carson City deputies will stop traffic at Highway 50 East and Lompa Lane, Highway 50 East and Airport Road and College Parkway and Airport Road for the procession. North Lompa Lane between East Nye Lane and Brian Circle will be blocked off to accommodate the fire trucks expected to come from California and Arizona in Chrzanowski's honor.
Chrzanowski was a 16-year veteran of the Carson City Fire Department.
Immediately following the service a reception will be held at El Charro Avitia, 4389 S. Carson St.
