Vigil for 37 year-old David Edward Wigley, murdered on November 8, 1993.
David was wearing feminine attire when found stabbed repeatedly in the
chest and stomach. In the arms of a good Samaritan, David said, "Help
me, help me," and recited the Lord's Prayer.

-- Embarking on a journey from the Pacific Northwest of the United
States, walking 6,000 miles to Washington DC, the walk embodies one
simple goal -- an end to gender discrimination.
During the walk
there will be numerous candlelight vigils at the specific places where
people have been murdered or have taken their own lives due to gender
expression/identity discrimination or bias. Providing gender
expression/identity, social movement and civil disobedience workshops
and theatrical performances inspiring people to walk into their own
light and true potential, this 9-18 month journey will help raise up
more voices in the effort for full social and legislative equality.
During
the journey, the Into the Light walk is asking for donations that will
cover basic expenses. And, 10% of every dollar raised will go directly
to the Transgender Legal Defense and Education Fund, whose mission is in
line with that of this walk -- to end gender discrimination.
