CANDLE LIGHT VIGIL #2 FOR RON KIRK
Saturday February 25th @ Sweet Woods, located in Glennwood, Il at the Cook County Forest Preserve.
All are welcome!
Sweet Woods is sacred ground to Ron, its a place where he loves to run, ride, and share comradery with friends.
We all wish we could be a part of the search in Red Rock Canyon near Las Vegas, but since that’s just not possible for some of us, this event is for family and friends to lend support from a distance. Please come out to lend support, prayers, tell stories, and to help bring Ron home! Candles will be provided. The candle lighting will be at 4:00pm, but feel free to arrive earlier.

Rest In Peace Ronnie
