Family and friends gathered Saturday at the first memorial services for victims of the massive Washington mudslide, as crews continued their search for more than a dozen people still missing.
The funeral services for Summer Raffo, 36, and Linda McPherson, 69, followed a prayer service Friday night honoring the victims, families and rescuers affected by the deadly March 22 mudslide in Oso.
“The number of victims is beyond understanding ”” many are in this room. Even if you didn’t have direct contact with someone involved, we all are victims,” said Chaplain Ralph Fry at the Friday service.
Memory eternal.
