Devastated by Atwood's death, Soliah organized a memorial rally at Ho Chi Minh Park in Berkeley in June, where she delivered an emotional eulogy, calling Atwood "a truly revolutionary woman" and bemoaning her "murder" by "500 pigs." But according to Voices of Guns, her speech was not blindly supportive.

"Over and over again, she told us how much she had loved Angela Atwood (Gelina) and how disappointed she had been that Angela had not trusted her enough to invite her into the SLA," Hearst wrote.
