Organizers of the march wrote, "Join us as we march against domestic violence as a family and community on Saturday April 3rd at 4:30pm at Cabot Square [...]. A service and candle light vigil in order to honour Rebekah's life will be held at the end of the march at Dorchester Square at 6:00pm."

A GoFundMe page has been set up to help the family pay for Harry's celebration of life and the creators of it are also "pulling together money for [Cordai]," her 9-year-old son.

Harry is the seventh woman to lose her life as a result of domestic violence in Quebec in seven weeks.
