Memorial Set for Brooklyn man who died in Mexico
A memorial service was set to be held Monday for a 25-year-old man from Brooklyn who died while hiking in rugged mountains in central Mexico.
Memorial events were scheduled all day at a Sikh place of worship in Sterling, Virginia, where Hari Simran Singh Khalsa worked as a co-director and yoga instructor.
Khalsa’s body was found Friday after he had been missing for four days in mountains about an hour south of Mexico City. He and his wife lived in Leesburg, Virginia and had gone to Mexico for a yoga retreat.
