Memorial Held For Student Killed In Car Accident

Reporting
Jodi Brooks
DENVER (CBS4) ― Friends of a college student killed with her parents in a car accident gathered to remember her and celebrate her life Thursday evening.

Chase Parr and her parents, John Parr and Sandra Widener, died in a chain reaction crash in Wyoming last month. Chase's sister, Katy, is the only survivor.

Friends of Chase gathered in Denver East High School's auditorium to watch some of her performances as a drama student.

Chase's friends say what hurts the most are their thoughts about Katy.

"Knowing Katy Parr's pain and knowing it so well and feeling like I still can't comfort her as much as she needs to be comforted," friend Madeleine Joyce said.

Katy sent a special message for those who attended the tribute.

"I'd like to thank everybody for doing this tribute. I would like you all to know that today is Chase's birthday. I am doing really well physically and pretty well emotionally. And I'd like to thank everyone there," the message said.

Katy is now staying with relatives in Idaho.

A date for the Parr family memorial has not been set yet.
