The clouds swirled overhead as people gathered below on White Sand Beach to remember Tim Buckley.

More than 200 people of all ages gathered on White Sand Beach in Old Lyme Saturday evening to participate in a candlelight vigil in loving memory of Timothy Buckley, who passed away earlier this week.

There were members of Tim’s family, his friends, teachers, neighbors, and people who — along with everyone else — just wanted to be there to show support for the Buckley family during this unimaginably difficult time.

The vigil was hosted by Lymes’ Youth Service Bureau.
