DETROIT — Arielle Anderson was destined for greatness, several speakers including Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said Tuesday at the funeral for the 19-year-old student killed during the mass shooting at Michigan State University last week.
Hundreds of mourners, largely family, filled Zion Baptist Church on Detroit's east side to say goodbye to Anderson, who was one of three MSU students who were killed in the shooting.
She lived up to her middle name, "a human reflection of a diamond," Anderson's aunt Kimella Spivey said to a packed church decked out with pink and white roses.
