NORTH PHILADELHIA - Hundreds of Temple University students, faculty and staff held a candlelight vigil Monday to honor the lives of five Temple students who passed away suddenly throughout the fall semester.
Among those remembered was 21-year-old Sam Collington. The Temple senior was shot and killed during an attempted robbery near campus just over a week ago. "Sam’s humor and intelligence made everyone feel happy and comfortable," says Shane Collington, Sam’s cousin.
