Public memorial for Decker sisters to be held June 20 at Rocky Reach Dam Park

WENATCHEE — A public memorial service honoring Paityn, Evelyn, and Olivia Decker will be held at 7 p.m. Friday, June 20.

The three young sisters—Paityn, 9; Evelyn, 8; and Olivia, 5—were reported missing after a visitation with their father and were later found deceased on June 2 in the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. Their deaths have prompted an outpouring of grief and support from across North Central Washington and beyond.

The community gathering will take place at Rocky Reach Dam Park, located at 5000 State Highway 97A, near milepost 203. The site is approximately 7 miles north of Wenatchee and offers free day-use parking.

The event is intended to offer a peaceful setting for reflection, remembrance, and community fellowship. Organizers have emphasized the importance of creating a space where families and friends can grieve together and begin the healing process.
