A candlelight vigil in honor of Jeff Beagle, the 48-year-old Palmerton man police said was stabbed to death last month by his brother, is planned for this weekend.

According to an event announcement on Facebook, the vigil is scheduled to run from 8-11 p.m. on Saturday at the Palmerton Borough park bandstand.

The event is scheduled to include a live performance of songs in tribute to Beagle as well as a live speaker.

Attendees are asked to bring their own candles.

State police have charged Jonathan Beagle, 38, with the homicide of his brother.

Police were called to their home on the 500 block of Lehigh Avenue about 6:15 a.m. on July 24.

Jonathan Beagle initially refused to come out of the home and told police that his brother was “hurt really bad.”

Eventually he came out of the home carrying a knife with blood on it.

Police found Jeffrey Beagle inside the home on the stairs with a stab wound. He was transported to St. Luke’s Lehighton Campus, where he was pronounced dead at 7:39 a.m.

Jonathan confessed to the stabbing and told police he thought that Jeffrey and their mother were making noise to disturb him while he slept in the home’s detached garage, and that they had locked him out of his bedroom.

Jonathan is being held in Carbon County prison without bail pending an Oct. 20 preliminary hearing.
