CHAPEL HILL -- A local congregation is planning a memorial service for Barbara "Babs" Sims who died Saturday night after being hit by a truck on Weaver Dairy Road.
Members of The Well, a Christian community planning to start worship at the ArtsCenter in Carrboro next month, had been holding monthly potlucks at the Hargraves Recreation Center on Roberson Street. Sims and her husband, Taz Herbert, had helped them spread the word among local homeless people.
The memorial will be at 5 p.m. Saturday atop the Wallace Parking Deck on East Rosemary Street. For more information, contact Matt Carter at 265-4744 or visit thewellchapelhill.org.
