More than 10,000 Kentuckians who have died from COVID-19 were remembered during a Sunday memorial service at the state capitol in Frankfort.
Governor Andy Beshear was joined by Lt. Governor Jaquelyn Coleman and other state officials in remembering the lives lost during the COVID-19 pandemic since March 2020.
Beshear says each Kentuckian lost should be remembered.
Others who spoke at the memorial included Dr. Philip Overall from St. Claire Regional Medical Center in Morehead; Jamar Wattley, PRN, RN, at Baptist Health La Grange; and Jacqueline Woodward, who lost her husband, Gary Woodward, to COVID-19.
