DESCRIPTION:Slain HSU Student to be Remembered at Prayer Service Tonight, Vigil on 
 Thursday\n\nHumboldt State University release: \n \nHumboldt State 
 University’s Cultural Centers for Academic Excellence will host a prayer 
 service for healing  in remembrance of David Josiah Lawson tonight, April 
 18, from 4 to 6 p.m. in the Great Hall. The service will be held by Galilee 
 Baptist Church.\n\nLawson, who went by Josiah, was killed early Saturday 
 morning during a gathering that took place on the 1100 block of Spear Ave, 
 in Arcata.\n\nMembers of Lawson’s family will be arriving in the area on 
 Wednesday, and have asked for a campus vigil on Thursday. Student groups 
 and a number of offices on campus are working together to plan the vigil, 
 and more information including the location and time will be available 
 soon.\n\nThe family has also set up a GoFundMe account to raise funds for 
 funeral and transportation services. \n\nStudents in need of support or 
 help related to classes may contact the Office of the Dean of Students in 
 Siemens Hall room 211 or at 707-826-3504. For assistance any time, students 
 can contact Counseling & Psychological Services at 707-826-3236. Staff and 
 faculty seeking additional support may utilize the Employee Assistance 
 Program at 707-443-7358.\n\n- - - - - - -\n\nIn Memory of David 
 Lawson\nhttps://www.gofundme.com/inhonorofDJ\n\nAs you may have heard, on 
 April 15, 2017 my son David "DJ" Lawson's life was taken before his time in 
 a senseless act of violence. DJ was the best son a mother can ask for. 
 \n\nFriends and Family talk about his smile that could brighten your day, 
 how considerate he was, how he treasured me "mom", his younger brother and 
 sister. \n\nHe was the kindest person I ever met. He did what was right 
 because it was right. He was protective of those he loved, and 
 compassionate of those he did not. \n\nI have never heard him say one bad 
 word about another human being. If you ever met a kinder person, I 
 challenge you to prove it.\n\nHe was a sophomore at Humboldt State 
 University studying criminal justice where he would have used his degree to 
 help the voiceless in the community.\n\nThe world has lost a bright and 
 shining star. Please continue to pray for me and my family as we go through 
 this unbearable loss.\n\nDJ was recently appointed President of BU 
 (Brothers United) at Humboldt University, and was an excellent upstanding 
 student.  \n\nThe funds collected for DJ will go towards bringing DJ home 
 and funeral services and expenses.\n\n- - - - - - -\n\n* Kyle Christopher 
 Zoellick, arrested by Arcata Police, has a history of violence. Rumor that 
 suspect might not be charged. \n\nKIEM TV reports: Murder suspect in HSU 
 student stabbing revealed\n\n"Reportedly, a fight broke out which left 
 Lawson with multiple stab wounds."\n
