Utahns ‘Light up for Lori’ after deadly synagogue shooting

On the last day of Passover, Lori Kaye went to services at Chabad Lubavitch synagogue of Poway, Calif., where she was murdered by a gunman and three others were injured.

“Coldblooded, fanatical hatred can only be uprooted by filling our world with pure, undiscriminating love and acts of kindness,” Rabbi Benny Zippel, executive director of Chabad Lubavitch of Utah, wrote on the group’s website. “We must teach this to all our children, in our schools and our homes.”

To that end, mourners hosted a candle lighting ceremony, “Light Up for Lori,” at 1760 S.
