For the 19th year, we will meet on Auditorium Shores to acknowledge the men, women and children who have died on the streets of Austin during the past year. This year, newly elected City Council member Kathie Tovo was the Key Note speaker. Dr. Reverend Sid Hall led us in prayer. Our lovely Sara Hickman graced us with songs, and Armin Steege closed with Taps.
The House the Homeless Memorial Sunrise Service started at 6:57am on Sunday November 13th and lasted an hour. The event was held at the Homeless Memorial at South 1st and Riverside Streets. (The memorial tree, bench and plaque that comprise the memorial rests 75 yards west of the Fanny Davis Gazebo and 75 yards east of the Stevie Ray Vaughn statue.) There was breakfast food and drink. Thanks for joining us to show our respect for our fallen friends.
