On Friday, human remains believed to be those of the Menards were found in a concrete bunker underneath Sparks’ home.
The suspected slayings have left the community shaken.
“We just want to be very sensitive to everyone that’s going through this … friends, neighbors, you know, residents that knew the Menards and then just knew them as their neighbors, and just didn’t necessarily know them personally, you know, just heard the story and were touched,” Michelle Mick, who organized the vigil, told ABC7 on Saturday night.
The couple, in their 70s, had lived at the ranch for 15 years.
“It’s been really hard,” Chris Hernandez, who attended the vigil, told the station. “A lot of confusion, a lot of questions.”
