AMSTERDAM, N.Y.—An upstate New York community stricken with grief after a limousine crash that killed 20 people is saying goodbye on Oct. 13, to four sisters and four family members who were on the ill-fated birthday celebration trip.

The combined service is being held a week after the stretch limo loaded with 18 people ran a stop sign and crashed at the bottom of a long hill in nearby Schoharie. Everyone in the limousine died, as well as two pedestrians.
