A memorial for Arlo Andrade-Janzen will be held Wed., Dec. 28, in the Grand Ballroom of the Carlton Hotel, 1110 Pleasant St., Oak Park, 5-9 p.m.
Andrade-Janzen, the son of Eva Janzen Powell, died in Denver on Dec. 7 after being in hospice care for 11 months. He was born with HIV in 1986, and understood what he had when he was 7.
As his health declined significantly this summer, Andrade-Janzen’s goal was to live until his 30th birthday on Sept. 20, which he celebrated with family members.
