Funeral For James Shaw Set For Friday
Former student-athlete at Brien McMahon was killed last Friday.
The funeral for James "Kuta" Shaw who was killed last Friday while walking along the Route 7 connector, has been scheduled for Friday at the First Congregational Church on the Green in Norwalk. The service will begin at 11 a.m.
Shaw was a three-sport athlete at Brien McMahon High School, graduating in 2008. He was well-respected amongst the student body and by those in the community. More than 800 people showed up for a candlelight vigil to honor Shaw last Friday at McMahon High School.
A fundraiser will be held in Shaw's honor Wednesday night at Cafe East in Stamford at 9. All proceeds from the event will go to Shaw's family to help pay for funeral costs.
