Kelsey Smith will be remembered during two services this week.

A visitation will be from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. tomorrow for the slain 18-year-old from Kansas.

A memorial service is planned for 2:00 p.m. Tuesday.

Both services will be at the United Methodist Church of the Resurrection in the Kansas City suburb of Leawood.

Smith was abducted a week ago from a Target store parking lot in
Overland Park, another Kansas City suburb.

Her body was found Wednesday about 20 miles from where she was kidnapped.

She had been strangled.

Authorities now say Smith died shortly after her abduction.

Twenty-six-year-old Edwin Hall has been charged in the kidnapping and killing.
