Over 100 people attended Saniya Daxon’s funeral Saturday morning, many wearing shirts with her picture on it.
“A mother should never bury her child,” said Saniya’s mother Tina Morgan-Daxson.
Last Saturday, Saniya, 27, was on the passenger side in a Chevy Malibu.
When officials say a driver in a stolen Mercedes, hit her car, and left the scene, killing Saniya and leaving her friend in serious condition.
“I don’t want retaliation, I just want the person arrested,” Morgan-Daxson said.
Morgan-Daxson said as she lays her daughter to rest, she will not rest until the person is responsible.
“I will continue to fight. If I don’t fight for her, who will?” Morgan-Daxson said.
