NORTH ATTLEBORO, Mass. (AP) -- A memorial vigil and a funeral service for a Marine helicopter pilot from North Attleboro who died in Afghanistan last month have been scheduled. A candlelight vigil in memory of Capt. Kyle Van De Giesen will be on Thursday evening at Community Field in North Attleboro. The public is invited. A funeral has been scheduled for Friday morning at Saint Mary's Church in town. A private burial service will follow at the Massachusetts National Cemetery in Bourne. The 29-year-old Van De Giesen died Oct. 26 in a helicopter crash. He leaves behind his pregnant wife and an 18-month-old daughter; his parents, two brothers and a sister.
