Victims of domestic violence are being honored and remembered today in Easton.
A ribbon cutting ceremony was held today to recognize the Beginning Over Foundation which has been put together to fight domestic violence.
Children gave out purple ribbons and silent witness figurines were placed in a circle to honor women in Pennsylvania who have been murdered in acts of domestic violence.
The foundation was started by Heidi Markow, who's sister, Robin Shafer, was killed by her estranged husband back in June of 2005.
