14 Year Old Taylor Smith

My name is Jade Bethune, a cousin of 14 year old Taylor Smith. I have been asked by her grandma, Carolyn Grimsley to make this gofundme. On April 3rd, 2017 Taylor was shot and killed in River Street Park. Taylor was only 14 years old. We do not know who killed her or why. We can't comprehend why anyone would kill a 14 year old child. In her grandma's words, "She was a flower that was not fully bloomed." No parent should ever have to bury their daughter but now Taylor's mom, Sabrina has the unfortunate​ responsibility of having to plan a funeral for her 14 year old daughter. We all are still in shock and disbelief that Taylor is gone. We're asking for donations to help with the cost of the funeral. Anything helps. Please help us lay our baby girl, Taylor Smith, to rest.
