Heather Heyer, the woman killed by a car driven into a crowd on Charlottesvilles Downtown Mall on Saturday, will be remembered at a memorial service at 11 a.m. Wednesday at the Paramount Theater.
Attendees are asked to wear something purple.
Heyer, 32, was among a mass of counter-protesters gathered at Fourth and Water streets after the white nationalist Unite the Right rally was broken up by authorities, who declared the rally at nearby Emancipation Park to be an unlawful assembly.

There are multiple online petitions to send a letter to Charlottesville Mayor Mike Signer to remove the Gen. Robert E. Lee statue from Emancipation Park and put a statue of Heyer or a memorial in her honor in its place.
HEATHER HEYER FOUND THAT GRACE.
