Hundreds came together to say their goodbyes to 13 year old Breanna Camacho. Camacho died in a a deadly accident Sunday that also killed one other and left four other teens seriously injured.

"She's going to be missed. Especially by her uncles and her relatives," said Breanna's unce Lupe Deleon. "We are going to keep her in our prayers."

Though she will be missed, she will be remember for her fun personality.

"She was a lovely girl. She was brilliant and she was friends with everybody," said Deleon.

But most of all, Breanna's friends will remember her for her sense of humor.

"She was, like, really funny. She would always make jokes," said friend Belicia Porteous. "It was cool. She was awesome."

And it was that part of her personality that her friends loved the most.

"Breanna was a nice girl, and she loved everyone. And she could always make me smile," said classmate Billy Johnson.

At the service, the church was filled. And while most of those who showed up were classmates and teammates, the number of people who came together to celebrate her life showed how many lives, both young and old, Breanna impacted.

"She had a lot of friends, that's for sure," said Deleons. "We noticed that today here at church."
