The Webster Springs community gathered Friday night to mourn Sarah Beckstrom, who was shot and killed in Washington, D.C., on Thanksgiving. She was attending with fellow guardsman Andrew Wolfe, who remains in critical condition.
The vigil offered prayers and support for both families. Beckstrom is a 2023 graduate of Webster County High School, and is being remembered across the county. Friday’s event was the second of three vigils held over the weekend.
