A candlelight walk will be held tonight, July 26 at 9 p.m. in remembrance of Kadian Harding.

Kadian was the 14-year-old son of local businessman Thomas Harding and Debora Cackler Harding.

According to family friend David Lillard, Kadian was killed on July 25 when he was hit by a vehicle while on a bike ride with his father and six others in England.

According to Monica Larson, a family friend of the Hardings, her son Milo Levine and friend, Josie Lo have planned the candlelight walk to honor Kadian, whom she described as her son’s best friend.

“Kadian was a clever, funny and very loving boy. He doted on his dog Duke, baked delicious desserts and could talk for hours on end about Apple products. He was a gift to the world, and we will miss him so very much,” Larson said.

Friends and loved ones are asked to bring candles for the walk from the lawn of McMurran Hall to the old fire station on the corner of King St., where the Hardings once resided.
