Nelson County victims’ bodies being returned

The bodies of two Nelson County residents killed in last week’s Mumbai terrorist attack will be returned home and plans for a memorial service are being made, according to a message on the Synchronicity Foundation’s Web site.

Alan Scherr, 58, and his 13-year-old daughter Naomi, were on a retreat with members from the spiritual community in Mumbai and were killed at the Oberoi Hotel when it was attacked.

The spiritual community’s leader Master Charles Cannon and all members of the Synchronicity delegation who were not at the restaurant where the Scherrs died were released uninjured and were transported to safety, the Web site said. They will be returning to their home countries soon.
