Community Vigil – in memory of Brkti Berhe
October 29 @ 6:00 pm
Dear Friends and Neighbours,
With a heavy heart, I invite you to attend a Community Vigil – in memory of Brkti Berhe – mother, spouse, friend, neighbour. The vigil will be held on
Tuesday, October 29 at 6pm, in Paul Landry Park (north end).
We have been shocked with such a horrific loss of life – a femicide. Join members of the community who are coming together to support one another during this very tragic time. I will have flowers and candles on hand. You are welcome to lay a flower at the park’s rock, which has become the focal point for the community.
I would like to make you aware of two financial funds that have been established to assist the family:
A Go Fund me page has been set up for the family, by a family friend. You may visit: https://www.gofundme.com/f/in-memory-of-brkti-berhe
The Hunt Club Community Association has set-up a fund as well. Please visit their donation page: www.hunt-club.ca/donate
Please dress for the weather. I expect the vigil will last approximately 20 minutes. You may share this page to encourage neighbours to attend.
Sincerely yours,
Riley Brockington
City Councillor, River Ward
