Nurse memorial held

— A service was held in London on Saturday to mourn the death of a nurse found hanging in her room three days after she had been duped by a hoax call from Australian disc jockeys about the pregnant Duchess of Cambridge.

The death of Jacintha Saldanha, 46, on Dec. 7 is being investigated as an apparent suicide. Saldanha’s family gave an emotional tribute outside of London’s Westminster Cathedral on Saturday after a memorial Mass.

Saldanha answered the phone at London’s King Edward VII Hospital when the announcers called seeking information about the Duchess of Cambridge, formerly called Kate Middleton, who was being treated for severe morning sickness.
