This is an extremely sad sorry, I’ve known this lady for years, we attend the same church and have since like forever, shes my aunts best friend and she even lives down the street from me, I never in a million years would have thought something like that would happen to her. I hope whoever did this unthinkable act is caught and justice is served.
