Village of Mamaroneck to Hold Candlelight Vigil for Paris Victims

The Village of Mamaroneck will host a candlelight vigil Tuesday night, Nov. 17, as a display of solidarity to France and the victims of last week’s Paris attacks.

“All people of goodwill are invited to show support for the victims of the Paris atrocity and join together as one for the people of France and our mutual respect for humanity,” officials wrote in a message to residents.

The event is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Memorial in front of the Mamaroneck Courtroom, 169 Mt. Pleasant Avenue, on the Prospect Avenue side.

“The Village is showing our sympathy and support for all victims who were killed or injured and their families and loved ones.”

Attendees are urged to bring a “candle or other battery-powered candle or luminary to light and commemorate those that lost their lives and the surviving victims, and particularly to show a solidarity for France and all who cherish freedom.”
