“She was shot by someone shooting bullets, and they basically destroyed my family,” her mother said.
Marshall lived in Prince George’s County, Maryland, but grew up in Falls Church, Virginia, where a candlelight vigil was held at the James Lee Community Center.
“She went to the rec center after school for their after school and their summer program,” Marshall’s mother said. “She played lacrosse and she did cheerleading here at the rec center. She played lacrosse for Falls Church city and her high school.”
Family say the turnout at the vigil shows how much Marshall was loved in the community.

Providence Players of Fairfax, famous locally for their “PopUp” plays in Falls Church, have come up with another socially distanced dramatic performance on offer by video stream: “Boredom, Fear, and Wine” by Craig Pospisil dramatizes the modern angst of the coronavirus pandemic, though it does not mention Covid-19 explicitly by name. The character of Harper, played with verve by Christopher Crockett, is an anxiety-ridden wreck of a man frustrated after weeks at home and not being able to leave his apartment. He notes that sales of wine are “way up,” and he and his wife are part of this trend. He is seen drinking a glass of wine during his exasperated peals of outbursts.

Fairfax County is changing up its Stuff the Bus food drive this winter to support increased demand for food while accommodating challenges presented by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Typically held twice a year, Stuff the Bus will kick off its 10
th year of existence with buses parked at select locations throughout the county from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Jan. 30 and Feb. 6.
During the two-day food drive, community members can stop by the buses to donate nonperishable food that will help restock local food pantries, which have reported an uptick in the need for food and drops in volunteer rates during the pandemic.
