LAGUNA BEACH, Calif.—In the entryway of the Festival of Arts gallery on Feb. 16, several hundred funeral attendees passed a well-used snowboard, scuba diving equipment, and photographs depicting memories of Dr. Michael John Mammone, 58, who was murdered while riding his bicycle along Pacific Coast Highway earlier this month.
“They say grief can be heavy at times, but that it becomes lighter when it is shared,” Austine Duru, chief mission integration officer at Providence Mission Hospital, told the mourners. “We are confident that [Mammone’s] legacy of love and compassion will live on.”
