They held a vigil Sunday outside the Crowne Plaza Hotel on River Road and have another tribute planned Monday. That's where the 19-year old was discovered dead inside the walk-in freezer last year.

Surveillance video showed Jenkins walking near the freezer after leaving a hotel party. Her death was ruled an accident.
