While speaking at one of the Tennessee Waffle House shooting victim‘s funeral, the restaurant’s CEO revealed that 21-year-old DeEbony Groves was singing gospel songs prior to her death.
A friend of Groves and one of the survivors of the shooting told Walt Ehmer they were singing before 29-year-old gunman Travis Reinking opened fire taking the Belmont University student’s life.
“We went and visited with the survivors, and they talked about the people who were in that restaurant before what happened happened, and specifically remembered your daughter,” Walt Ehmer told mourners Saturday.
“And [they] spoke of your daughter and her friend and said they were singing gospel songs. And everybody was singing and enjoying each other and she said, ‘The last thing I remember her saying was, singing ‘Jesus Loves Me.'”
He added that he was hopeful Groves’ family and friends would get through this tragedy “because I know by watching this is a very strong, faith-filled community.”
