Loved ones gathered to remember all the lives lost to homicide, reckless driving, or fentanyl in Henrico on Tuesday.

It’s part of the county's yearly work held by the Henrico Commonwealth's Attorney Victim Witness Services to honor and support families.

A tree is lit in remembrance at the Henrico County complex to remember the lives lost. Families place an ornament to represent their loved one's life.

Rosanne Fletcher hung her ornament for her 30-year-old daughter Sara Rose Fletcher. Police said she was murdered by her husband in 2021. Fletcher shared just how full of love and spunk her young daughter was.

“It was hard to gauge what was going on behind closed doors," she said. "And that’s why we need to speak out. That’s why I come every year, because if we don’t, it’s never going to change."
