KALAMAZOO (WKZO AM/FM) — Funeral Services were scheduled for Saturday afternoon for the four-year-old boy and his mother who were killed in a double-murder suicide by the child’s father just over a week ago on Emerson Street.
Services for 19-year-old Julina Gibson and her son Nicholas Mitchell were set for Bethany Reformed Church on North Burdick at 2 pm.
Gibson is survived by a 10-year-old daughter and her mother and father and a number of Aunts, Uncles and other members of an extended family.
Investigators say it appears that long-running tension over visitation and child support was the motive for the shooting deaths.
The family has established a Gofundme page.
