MARSHFIELD, WI (WSAU) — Friends and family have established a GoFundMe account for the family of Melissa Wright, who was killed by her ex-husband last week in a murder-suicide.
Those who would like to contribute to the fund can do so here. The fundraiser has brought in more than $24,000 in its first few days, with organizers aiming to raise $40,000.
All money raised will go to help cover Wright’s final expenses.
She was killed on November 15th after her ex-husband broke into her home and shot her, then turned the gun on himself. Police were alerted to the incident by one of her co-workers at Marshfield Clinic, who called for a well-being check on Wright after she didn’t show up to work that day.
Her children were not home at the time of the incident and were not harmed.
