The memorial will be held on Wednesday from 7:30 and 8:30 p.m. Participants will be asked to share reminiscences up to two minutes in length.

Friends can also share stories at the in-person gathering next Thursday from 3 to 4:30 p.m. at Louse Point. Those planning to attend have been asked to take chairs or blankets, and snacks to share. Drinks will be supplied. Butterflies will be released in Beryl's honor, her niece said.
