Tonight we held a memorial service for Laraine Wilkins who died from injuries sustained in a car accident in Idaho three weeks ago. She and her daughter lived in the Arlington Ward a few years ago and have recently been living in Salt Lake City. A number of us wanted to have a memorial service here. It was so nice. Four people prepared remarks and then a few others shared memories of Laraine. There was a vocal solo "Be Still My Soul" and then the women sang "The Lord is My Shepherd". I suggested that someone videotape the service, which they did. I know Laraine's family will appreciate hearing the memories and tributes shared tonight. Laraine will be missed by her many Boston friends. And we are all hoping and praying that her daughter continues to recover.
