“You hear this on the news all the time, but you never think it’s in your neighborhood.,” Cochran said.

“I can’t imagine what the family is going through,” Kelly Vyera said.

Vyera there hoping to find peace, even though she didn’t know Shanann or the girls.

“I didn’t know the family, but I just want to try to heal a little bit,” Vyera said.
