The Warren Prevention Coalition held its third annual candlelight vigil in honor of National Overdose Awareness Day on Thursday night.

Attendees spoke with friends and advocates to share stories of their various experiences with addiction, and to honor the memory of those who have succumbed to it.

He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
