More than 350 people came out to honour the life of Mike Woloshyn at a social on Wednesday night.
The 16-year-old was stabbed to death in the early morning hours of New Year's Day last year.
It happened at a house party in Selkirk.
Witnesses say Woloshyn was trying to break up a fight when he was stabbed in the stomach. Witnesses say the victim and accused knew each other, but don't believe Woloshyn was the target of the attack.
A 17 year old is charged with second degree murder in his death. RCMP is investigating the homicide.
