MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - On Monday, hundreds of Memphians showed up to honor the life of Tyre Nichols on his would-have-been 30th birthday.
It was a celebration of a life that so many loved, especially a mother and father who wish their son was here.
“I appreciate each and every one of you for coming out and sharing this occasion with our family. This is just beautiful,” said RowVaughn Wells, Nichols’ mother.
