Series of memorials for Floyd
The memorial services to honor George Floyd will be held in three cities over six days, with a chance for mourners to pay their respects in the communities where he was born, grew up, and died — Houston, Raeford, N.C., and Minneapolis.
The Minneapolis memorial is set for Thursday at North Central University in Minneapolis. It’s a private, invitation-only event, according to a university representative.
