WAUKESHA, Wis. (CBS 58) -- People gathered in Waukesha Tuesday night to remember three family members killed in a crash in Minnesota earlier this month. 

They are 54-year-old Sheila Eagle, 29-year-old Tamara Lynn Eagle, and 11-year-old Nyobee Eagle Richardson.

The family was on their way to a funeral in South Dakota when the crash happened. Three other people were also killed.

According to authorities, it was the deadliest crash in Minnesota since 2010.

"I just want to thank everyone for coming out, for showing their love and support for the Eagle family, and thank you for all the GoFundMe donations, it's really helped pay for the funeral costs, and we thank you so much," said Nyobee's grandfather, Tyreace Brown.

The Waukesha family will be laid to rest at a cemetery in Green Bay later this week.
