Vigils for Dr. Tiller
A list of vigils to honor and remember the late Dr. George Tiller
Below is a list of vigils taking place around the country to honor Dr. George Tiller. I ask that those of you who disagree with Dr. Tiller’s work and choices be respectful during this time. These vigils are designed to be peaceful and are not designed to foster debate or discussion over pro-choice vs. pro life issues. Thank you.
