Labyrinth Being Dedicated In Memory Of Jane Bashara

GROSSE POINTE WOODS, Mich. (AP) - A labyrinth is being dedicated in memory of Jane Bashara, a suburban Detroit woman who was strangled three years ago.

Jane's Walk is located in the front yard of St. Michael's Episcopal Church in Grosse Pointe Woods. An event is planned Sunday. The church says prayer stations that explore the symbolic journey of walking a labyrinth are being planned as part of the memorial.

Bashara's husband Bob Bashara was sentenced in January to life in prison for arranging his wife's killing. They lived in the nearby community of Grosse Pointe Park and she was found dead in her Mercedes-Benz in a Detroit alley, miles from the couple's home.

Prosecutors say Bob Bashara coerced handyman Joe Gentz strangle his wife and to abandon the body. Gentz is imprisoned for second-degree murder.
