Family and friends of Alexis Hill, the manager of the Dollar General on Victory Drive in Columbus who was fatally shot by a customer Tuesday, will conduct a candle lighting and balloon release ceremony in her honor Saturday.
The event is scheduled to start at 12:30 p.m. on the Chattahoochee Riverwalk, her brother, Jonathan Hill, announced in a Facebook post.
