Remembering "HADIYA" - February 8, 2013

HIDIYA PENDLETON

CHICAGO - (MPA-PPR), February 8, 2013, tomorrow a funeral will be held in Chicago, IL for Ms. Hadiya Pendleton, daughter, family member, school mate, honor student, majorette, mentor, 15 years of age. 

She became a gun shot victim while waiting with friends under a canopy at Vivian Gordon Harsh Park in Chicago.  It was early afternoon and they were waiting for the rain to let up.  The gunman jumped the fence and began shooting.

We sympathize and moan the loss of this young and gifted young lady with her family. 
Hadiya has joined the thousands for the year that are murdered and we are worn by this continued tragedy. 

Our thoughts go out to her family, friends and loved ones!
May they find comfort through remembering Hadiya's bright smiles, jokes, listening ear, special events, successes and yes, growing moments as the days-months-years grow old.

We send our love and best wishes to Hadiya - Happy Trails on your journey as you go.

First Lady Michelle Obama will attend Hadiya's funeral to represent each of us that can not go but send our best thoughts at a time like this.
