Freddie Palacios-Carbajal and Karina Palacios-Carbajal, Bernardo’s siblings, and Lucy Palacios, his mother, sit in the living room where there’s a tribute to their loved one. Karina remembers him as a “very caring” person who “loved his family.”
Karina and Freddie Palacios-Carbajal are sitting in their mom’s kitchen in Salt Lake City’s Rose Park neighborhood. It’s almost dinner time. Food in a crockpot fills the house with delicious smells.
There are two leg lamps in the living room, like the ones from the movie “A Christmas Story.”
In the corner of the room is a memorial with fresh flowers, flickering candles and a picture of Karina’s little brother Bernardo Palacios-Carbajal.

SALT LAKE CITY Amid the new guidelines set last week by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, more businesses and universities are dropping their mask requirements across Utah.
Smith s Food and Drug is dropping its mask policy for fully vaccinated customers and most employees, the chain announced Wednesday
The policy change will go into effect Thursday. Customers and most employees will be able to go into stores and other facilities if they have been fully vaccinated; unvaccinated employees and pharmacy employees will still be required to wear masks.
Both Smith s and Kroger announced they would implement enhanced cleaning and physical distancing across all facilities and offer workers $100 in a one-time payment to receive the COVID-19 vaccine, which is something that can be administered at one of the stores pharmacies.
SALT LAKE CITY Tens of thousands of cars use 300 West from 900 South to 2100 South daily.
As an economic hub almost hidden in plain sight, it s a section of the city that many residents and people who commute into Salt Lake City use on a regular basis. But it s also a section that can be difficult to manage with its disrepair so much so that Salt Lake City Mayor Erin Mendenhall says it s a spot people avoid traveling through if they can. Right here on 300 West is one of the greatest opportunities in the entire city, and I think all along the Wasatch Front, she said as several cars whizzed by 300 West behind her. We have one of the highest tax revenue returns right here on the 300 West corridor, but you wouldn t know it to look at the streets.
