Memorial Service for Wellington Teen Who Left Us Too Early

Torry Archibald Memorial Fund

Victoria “Torry” Diane Archibald passed away on Monday, February 9, 2015 in a tragic accident that left the Town of Wellington reeling . Torry left us way too early. She was just 16-years-old and a junior at Poudre High School in Fort Collins.

A memorial service is planned for this weekend and a fund has been established in Torry's name.

I didn't know Torry personally, but I know she was one of the "Wellington Kids" who stood out in all kinds of weather for the past several years, raising thousands of dollars for our 28 Hours of Hope. I know she had a good heart and loved to help people. I know she will be greatly missed by the entire community.

The North Forty News wrote a beautiful obituary:

Torry was a bright, beautiful, willful human being. She loved her family and friends, and would do anything for anybody. She always had something to say and add to the world around her.

Memorial Service

A memorial service will be held at noon on Saturday, Feb. 21 at the Wellington Community Church, 8445 3rd Street in Wellington. The event will be open to the public. The family told the North Forty News:

We encourage anyone who was touched by Torry’s life to attend.Torry was not a formal person and we are trying to respect her free spirit. We are asking that even though black or formal wear is acceptable, we know that she would love green, Batman, or PHS gear.
