The 5-year-old Logan girl who authorities say was taken from her home and killed by her uncle last week is set to be memorialized at her funeral Tuesday.
Elizabeth “Lizzy” Shelley was reported missing May 25, and searchers scoured the Logan area for five days before police say her uncle, 21-year-old Alex Whipple, disclosed where he had hidden her body. She was found buried under leaves and debris in a wooded area about a quarter mile from her home.
A service will be held at 1:30 p.m. at the Nyman Funeral Home, followed by a procession to the Logan Cemetery where she will be buried.
