Gabby Petito is sadly gone, but will never be forgotten.
Her family and friends and making sure her memory and legacy live on.
Last September, the 22-year-old was reported missing by her mother Nichole Schmidt.
Her remains were found on September 19 in a Wyoming National Park.
The coroner estimated she had been deceased for three weeks prior to her body retrieval.
Last week, Gabby’s father and step-mother shared a message about honoring their late daughter.
Joseph and Tara Petito shared the following message: “In honor of #Gabbypetito and all the #domesticviolence victims around the world we are asking you to light up the night for those who can’t not be here. #togetherwecan end the cycle. #domesticviolenceawareness.”
A TikTok video explaining “light up the night” accompanied their tweets.
“Whether a candle, lantern or string lights in your backyard, light up the darkness for a few moments to honor those who lost their lives to domestic violence,” the message read.
