“妈妈第一次出国是参加你的葬礼”(2)

无注释原文：
‘I am going to bring you home,’ says mom of slain Shaoxiong ‘Dennis’ Zheng, remembered at University of Chicago memorial service
Chicago Tribune
Students still wearing backpacks and holding flowers filled the Hyde Park Gothic chapel Thursday afternoon as pictures of Shaoxiong “Dennis” Zheng rotated on a TV screen, showing his progression from a small child striking a silly pose to an adult in a suit standing straight to display his academic accomplishments.
Hundreds settled on the red velvet cushions before the memorial service, held at the Rockefeller Memorial Chapel as Ed Sheeran’s “Photograph” played on repeat. One woman stood to the side and cried softly as another offered her a hug and led her toward the back of the church. The service started at 3 p.m. sharp, with a low steady ring.
A framed portrait of Zheng sat on the middle of the stage surrounded by large displays of white and yellow flowers.
Zheng, 24, was fatally shot Nov. 9 during a robbery near the University of Chicago, where he had graduated with a master’s degree in statistics earlier this year.
