Slain security guard remembered in peace officer-style funeral service
Communities in Edmonton came together Sunday to honour a security guard killed on the job 10 days earlier.
Harshandeep Singh, 20, was fatally shot in an apartment building at 107 Avenue and 106 Street early in the morning of Dec. 6.
On Sunday at the Edmonton Crematorium and Funeral Home, Singh was given a regimental peace officer-style service with a first responders’ honour-guard, a ceremony never before offered to someone who is technically a private citizen and not a sworn peace officer.
Friends and family remembered the 20-year-old student and avid video gamer’s dedication and passion.
Cousin Navjot Singh said Harshandeep was “most ambitious” and a “beloved son” of the entire family, adding his death has hit them “all very hard.”
“Our family has suffered a huge loss and a void never to be filled,” he said at the service. “We will all dearly miss him.”
Singh, who had come to Canada from India and was studying business administration at Norquest College, was working just the third shift at his job as a security guard at the building when he was killed.
Friends said Singh dreamed of becoming an officer with the Edmonton Police Service.
Evan Rain and Judith Saulteaux, both 30, are charged with first-degree murder in Singh’s death.
They remain in custody ahead of a bail hearing in early January.
