A Celebration of Life will take place today in remembrance of 19 year old Jennifer Cusworth, whose murder sparked one of the longest investigations in Kelowna history.

The Memorial will take place at Okanagan College on KLO Rd. starting at 1:00pm

Cusworth had last been seen at a Richter Street house party in October of 1993, her body was discovered two days later in a ditch on Swamp Road in what is now Kelowna's Mission area.

45 year old Neil George Snelson, a married father of four, was convicted of manslaughter in October 2011 and was sentenced to 15 years in prison.
