Touched by suicide

Freiberg family members tie ribbons on a banner to be carried at the front of the annual Suicide Awareness Memorial Walk, which happened in a light rain Oct. 12 in Carlton. Pictured from left are Tom, Jaxon, age 8, Jamie, and Jace, age 9, along with niece Jordyn Belden. Jamie said she survived a past attempt and participated in her first walk last year. "I put it on the calendar for this year and we came," she said. "I wanted to bring my kids. It's a good thing." People walk in memory of loved ones lost to, or touched by suicide, and to bring awareness towards prevention.
