Since they did not have a traditional wedding, Chris and Sheri Walsh were planning to gather friends and family for a recommitment ceremony in 2020.
But instead of shopping for a wedding gown at Gracie s Bridal this past March, Sheri Walsh picked out a black dress to wear to her husband s funeral.
Chris Walsh, a 32-year-old Springfield Police Department officer, was among four people killed by a lone gunman March 15 at the Kum & Go store on East Chestnut Expressway.
A year later, Sheri Walsh wants her husband to be remembered as a normal guy who did a beautiful thing. And she is working to continue his legacy of trying to make Springfield a better place.
It happened just after 11:00 p.m. Wednesday in the 400 block of East Chestnut Street.
Police say the victim was taken to a local hospital where they were treated and released.
No suspects have been identified. Anyone with information is asked to contact Carbondale Police.
