Many members of the Burlington community came out to the Town Commons this evening to remember and honor the life of Kristen Pulisciano, support her family, and take a stand against domestic violence.

Pulisciano was found stabbed to death in her Burlington home on May 3.  Christopher Piantedosi, Pulisciano's long-term boyfriend, is currently in custody facing charges for her murder.

The message of the vigil was to embrace life and love and eschew violence. Speakers talked about the need for the community to come together and resist domestic violence. 

Featured here are a couple of pictures from the vigil. Burlington Patch will have a full gallery and write-up shortly. In that story we would like to feature messages on the issue from members of the community. If you would like to share your thoughts on Kristen, this sad tragedy or domestic violence email them to richard.hosford@patch.com and they will be included in the full story tomorrow.
