Westmont Community Mourns the Loss of a Student

A public memorial service will be held for Nick Davis on Tuesday, Jan. 15, at 1 p.m. at Shoreline Community Church, 2500 Garden Road in Monterey, Calif. Davis, a senior economics and business major from Pacific Grove, Calif., died in a solo motorcycle accident on Cold Spring Road Jan. 8 at about 9 p.m.

"We are deeply saddened by this tragic death," says Westmont President Gayle D. Beebe. "Our hearts and prayers go out to Nick's family and friends, and our Student Life and counseling staff members are available to meet with students struggling with this loss."

Campus Pastor Ben Patterson set aside the chapel program scheduled for Jan. 9 and devoted the time to prayer, Scripture and worship as more than 1,000 faculty, staff and students gathered to grieve together. Here is video from the chapel service at Westmont.
