Thousands of mourners are expected to attend a memorial service Friday for Steven Sotloff, the Pinecrest journalist whose murder was revealed earlier this week by Muslim militants in Syria.
The service, open to the public, is scheduled for 1 p.m. at Temple Beth Am, 5950 SW 88th St.
Sotloff, 31, was a freelance journalist covering the Middle East when he was kidnapped just inside Syria in August 2013. Except for a single phone call to his parents in December, he was never heard from again. On Tuesday, the fundamentalist Muslim militia Islamic State posted a video on the Internet showing his decapitation.
