Come to the candlelight vigil at Gurdwara Sikh Temple (Connecticut Sikh Association) tonight at 1610 West St. in Southington, Conn.
The vigil starts at 7:30 p.m. See you there.
Meanwhile, check out what my friend, Helen, wrote about Philadelphia’s observance. And if you’re not in Connecticut and want to attend a vigil or memorial service, here’s a list of events around the country.
And this, from the Southington Gurdwara’s Facebook page (and thanks, Sharon, for the reminder):
Hello everyone! Thank you for all your support, we are very excited to see everyone tonight. I know this is the first time many of you will be visiting a Gurdwara (sikh temple) so I just wanted to kindly remind everyone of the dress code. Please remember to wear proper modest attire. Long loose clothing is most comfortable, especially since we’ll be sitting on the floor for sometime. It is important to wear clothing that does not expose any underwear or too much skin. Scarves will be provided, however women are more than welcome to bring their own scarves, and men, their own bandanas.
Thank you, we look forward to seeing everyone tonight !! :)
