‘Vigil for Tatjana’: Memory of homicide victim in Lumby, B.C. to be honoured Friday | Globalnews.ca


Residents of Lumby, B.C., will host a vigil Friday evening to honour Tatjana Stefanski, whose body was discovered earlier this month near Mable Lake Road. A suspect faces charges.

Tatjana Stefanski’s community will gather in Lumby Friday night to honour her memory and advocate for changes in how suspects of violent crimes are handled before charges are laid.
Stefanski, whose remains were found April 14 near Mable Lake Road a day after her ex-husband allegedly abducted her, will be remembered at a 7 p.m. vigil at Lumby’s Oval Park. Before that, lanterns will be made at the Lumby Christian Church from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.
“It’s a chance for the community to get together, talk, express their feelings, and show support for the family as well and, of course, the end of a very beautiful life way too early.”
While the suspect in Stefanski’s killing was arrested near where her body was discovered on the day she was found, police said in a subsequent press release that he was released shortly after on a series of conditions.
