Nearly 400 friends, co-workers and community residents packed an Antlers Hilton Hotel ballroom on Wednesday for a public memorial for the Colorado Springs mother and her three adopted daughters who died in a flood in Wyoming.
Laurel Constantinides, 39, Hannah, 8, Zoe, 5, and Lucy, 2, drowned July 19 when their van was swept off a highway that had been washed out by a creek swollen by snow melt and heavy rains as the family fled a campground authorities had ordered them to evacuate.
