MARION – A benefit to help the children of a woman killed in an active shooter situation in early January in the Carterville area has been scheduled for 1 to 5 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 26 at The Pavilion in Marion.

You may remember that on Jan. 6, Michelle Aumiller of Harrisburg was killed by her estranged husband, Robert W. Aumiller of Harrisburg. He later died after shooting himself.

There will be live music, a silent auction and food.

Funds raised at the benefit will go towards providing lifelong counseling for the children, setting up trust funds and providing funds for the caretakers.
