Many visit Web site for slain UA student
Posted on Sunday, October 9, 2005
A Web site memorializing a slain University of Arkansas at Fayetteville student has received 20,000 hits so far, representatives of the Web site said.
Carrie Altulvilla, public relations associate for Thinkbig Media in Aliso Viejo, Calif., said the Web site at Memory-Of. com representing April Renetta Love, 20, was created by a friend of Love's, Ryshelle McCadney. Love and McCadney spent the summer together in Washington when Love interned on Capitol Hill.
Visitors of the Web site "light"memorial candles, view a photo album or read about Love's life.
Love was found dead in her Fayetteville apartment on Sept. 15. The state Medical Examiner's office ruled Love died by asphyxiation and her death was a homicide.
Brandon Sanders, 20, of Nashville is being held in the Washington County jail on $500,000 bond. Police say he is a suspect in Love's death, but he has yet to be charged.
Love's memorial Web site is available at april-love. memoryof. com.
