Homeless Men and Women Who Died in 2004

Memorial services were held on December 21, 2004 at St. Patrick’s Church before their regular Tuesday meal program. The service was part of an effort to coordinate the first statewide Homeless Memorial Day Event. Vigils were also held in Cincinnati, Columbus, and Dayton. A short inter-denominational service was conducted before the names of those individuals who passed away over the last year were read. Here is the list of names of people who were homeless in 2004 whose talents were lost to the Cleveland community.
