Prayer Vigil

The following photos were taken at the most recent vigil for murder victim Tamara Gregory held on Thursday, April 12, on Nebraska Avenue in Peoria. Gregory is the fifth murder victim this year.

A child bears a sign speaking volumes.


Mayor Jim Ardis offers a few words.


Patti Sterling-Polk, founder of the Peoria chapter of Mother's Against Violence, wraps the daughter of Tamara Gregory in a quilt symbolizing the community's love and support.


No caption needed.

Just a few of the over 200 people who attended the rally.

I put my prayers and my sympathy out to the families that have lost someone. I think that was nice for Mr. Carl cannon to get everyone together for the prayer vigil.
