Victoria's GoFundMe Page

Her cousin, who was someone Santymire closely confided in as a friend, started a GoFundMe page to help the family properly memorialize Victoria.

The page has already raised $10,987 of their $15,000 goal.

Her family is also asking for other memorial donations to be given to Rikki's Refuge Animal Sanctuary in Victoria’s name. This shelter is a safe haven for abandoned and mistreated animals, something that Victoria really believed in. 

Victoria is survived by her parents, step-parents, siblings, and extended family.
