15th Annual Candlelight Vigil

4-6 p.m.

On March 2, 1995, Susana Remerata Blackwell, Phoebe Dizon, Veronica Laureta, and Baby Kristine, Ms. Blackwell’s unborn child, were murdered by Susana’s estranged husband in the King County Courthouse as Susana attempted to escape an abusive marriage.

Since this tragic event, The Asian & Pacific Islander Women & Family Safety Center has been committed to holding a vigil every year to commemoration of all those affected by domestic violence. The event will include an indoor and outdoor program with guest speakers, Cambodian and Indonesian dance performances and food. In addition, a silent vigil will also take place outside with a march to follow. The event is free and open to the public. Please spread the word, and join us on Thursday!
