Public Memorial to Take Place for Hudson Family

A public memorial service will be held on Sunday for the Hudson family, mourning the tragic death of Jennifer Hudson’s mother, brother and 7-year-old nephew.

“The Hudson family welcomes anyone who wishes to attend and pay their respects to these three beloved members of the Chicago community” says Jennifer’s rep.

The memorial will be held between 4-7 p.m. at the Pleasant Gift Missionary Baptist Church. The church’s address is 4526 S. Greenwood in Chicago. Jennifer and sister Julia are not expected to be attending the public memorial.

Will any of you be going? I’m grateful that they are holding a public memorial for the community to mourn the loss. The situation is so tragic. My condolences to the Hudson family and anyone who was affected by the death of the victims.
