GOLETA, Calif. – At a memorial service for victims of a 22-year-old man’s weekend rampage in California, a message was read from the parents of one of the killer’s slain roommates to their departed son.
The message to 20-year-old Weihan Wang from his parents said, “You will be at peace in the hands of God.”
They added that they had seen God’s “spiritual fruits” in his life – that their son was “gentle, kind, loving, joyful, peaceful, faithful and self-controlled.”
Wang, who went by the name of David, graduated from Fremont Christian School and was studying computer engineering at UC Santa Barbara. The tribute from his parents was read by Richard Martinez, whose son Christopher also was among the victims.
Seven young people died, including the killer.
