I will say this, she lived more in her 53 years than a lot of people live that get to be 90. She really lived her life. She was just so alive. Let me tell you, she was brave.

And I remember just crying my eyes out, pumping gas, and people just kept riding by. And I was like, how can people just go on driving by, riding in their cars when my sister has been murdered? How can people do that? How can I be pumping gas when my sister has been murdered?
