Thousands raised for funeral of murdered Sheffield mum and to support her son's future
“She lit up every room she walked into and was loved deeply by everyone lucky enough to know her”
More than £12,000 has been raised so far for the funeral of a murdered Sheffield mum and to support her son’s future.
Shanice Brookes, aged 30, was shot outside West Street bar One Four One in the early hours of Bank Holiday Monday.
A man and woman arrested on suspicion of murder remain in police custody.
Shanice, who was a mum, was on a night out when tragedy struck.
Detectives investigating the shooting said she was an “innocent bystander”.
The online GoFundMe appeal says: “Shan deserves the most beautiful send off after being taken from us far too soon.
“She leaves behind her beloved 10-year-old son, who now has to face life without his mum, something no child should ever have to go through.
“Any money remaining after funeral costs will be put aside for him and his future.
“Shanice had the biggest heart, the most infectious humour, and a beautiful soul that touched so many people.
“She lit up every room she walked into and was loved deeply by everyone lucky enough to know her.
“Any donation, no matter how small, would mean so much to our family during this heartbreaking time.”
