Anastasia
Elizabeth WitbolsFeugen
Born July 14, 1979
Murdered October 22, 1997
Anastasia WitbolsFeugen was murdered more than a decade ago on the night of October 22, 1997, aged 18 years
and 100 days, victim of a single gunshot wound to the head. On May 2, 2002, a former highshcool classmate of Anastasia's was
convicted of First Degree Murder, and is now serving a sentence of Life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Despite the passage of time since that terrible night when we lost Anastasia, the pain remains new. Her absence is still
felt keenly by all of those who knew and loved her. She is missed just as much today as when we lost her.
