As police continue looking for their remains, a memorial service is planned for a young Utah mother and son missing since 2015

A May memorial service is planned for a young Utah mother and son who authorities say were killed by the woman’s boyfriend.

Despite not yet finding their bodies, police and prosecutors say the mother and son are likely dead — and in October they charged the woman’s boyfriend, 29-year-old Christopher Richard Poulson, with two counts of aggravated murder and obstructing justice.

In a Sunday obituary, Quijano’s family announced a May 26 memorial service for the woman and her young son. It will be held at 1 p.m. at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints stake building at 711 S.
