Candlelight Vigil Tonight for 9-Year-Old Murder Victim

Hold his light in your heart.  A candlelight vigil for Joshua Savyon and his family will be held  Friday at 7 p.m. on the Village Green in Amherst. The 9-year-old was tragically killed by his father in a murder-suicide at the YWCA in Manchester on Sunday. Muni Savyon shot his son multiple times before turning the gun on himself during a visitation. All are welcome to go honor and remember Joshua and show support for the family and friends left to grieve his death.
