Public vigil held for Bobbi Kristina Brown
At a public vigil held Monday night in Riverdale, Ga., a few Brown family members joined hundreds of fans and friends to pray for Bobbi Kristina Brown, who has now been hospitalized for nine days on life support after being found face down in a bathtub.
The event was held at the Riverdale Town Center amphitheater south of Atlanta. It had special meaning in that Bobby Brown, Bobbi Kristina's dad, was its first performer in 2010.
Riverdale Mayor Evelyn Wynn-Dixon was among those who sang gospel hymns on stage, according to AP, as members of the crowd sang and danced along.
None of the Houston family members, nor Bobby Brown, was there.
Several vigil speakers touched on the struggles and scrutiny Brown's family has faced in recent years, comparing them to their own trials and tribulations.
"They bleed and hurt like us," Wynn-Dixon told the crowd before singing the gospel song.
Meanwhile, Wednesday will mark the three-year anniversary of Whitney Houston's death. The Roswell Police Department is investigating the circumstances surrounding the 911 call for Bobbi Kristina.
