## Summary

About 350 people gathered at Fair Haven Church in West Michigan to honour a newborn girl known as Baby Grace, who was found dead in a portable toilet at the Electric Forest music festival in June. The service and burial gave her a dignified farewell while the search for her unidentified parents continues.

Authorities say Grace was born alive in the festival’s Good Life camping area on 28 June and lived for about one minute. Travis Byrnes, who was granted custody of her remains, chose her name and arranged for her burial in a plot donated by his family; more than 50 handwritten notes and keepsakes were placed with her. The FBI is still seeking information about her parents.
