BALDWYN, Miss. (WTVA) - A ceremony was held at Latimer Park in Baldwyn Thursday evening to remember the life of Gary Price.

He was killed in a shooting that happened Tuesday, Jan. 22.

Dozens of friends, family and community members gathered at the park to listen and sing together.

Three church pastors from the area preached and prayed with the community and encouraged it to improve.

"Disbelief, pain - we can't believe this is happening to somebody we all love,” said Roslynn Copeland, a relative of Price.

High pressure will briefly dominate our weather forecast for Friday and Saturday. For our Saturday morning we will see some brief, isolated showers move through but they will move out by the afternoon leaving us with some sunshine. More low pressure moves into our area for the end of the weekend. This will bring back into our area some more chances for some rain and thunderstorms.
