Mourners gathered at Shiloh Temple in Minneapolis on Saturday to remember 10-year-old Barway Collins, and said they hoped his death would bring the community closer together.
The nearly four hour-long service was officiated by a number of community pastors, and included music, recognition of those who helped search, and remembrances of Barway.
His mother, Louise Karluah, traveled from Liberia to attend his funeral.
