We come to you today with heavy hearts, compelled by the sudden and tragic loss of a devoted mother Renae Good. She was taken from us too soon, but her legacy lives on in her three beautiful children, aged 6, 12, and 15. In her absence, they now face challenges no child should ever endure.

This fund has been established to honor her memory by securing the future she dreamt of for her children. Beyond the immediate grief, they need stability, support, and most importantly, the assurance that their education and well-being will be protected. Your generosity can help lay the groundwork for their healing and provide them with the tools to grow into the bright individuals their mother knew they could be.

25 dollars ensures they have essential food and clean water, covering their most basic needs.

50 dollars can assemble a care package with vital supplies: hygiene products, clothing, and even school supplies to help them continue their learning journey.

250 dollars contributes towards giving their mother the respectful farewell she deserves, easing the financial strain on the family.

1,000 dollars can provide crucial long-term stability, helping secure their housing, offering vital counseling services, and establishing funds specifically for their continued education and future opportunities 

The woman shot and killed by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent in Minneapolis was a loving mother, a poet and a partner whose family – along with neighbors across her stunned city and strangers far beyond – is shocked by the circumstances surrounding her death.

Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old US citizen, was killed when an ICE agent shot into her vehicle during an encounter Wednesday morning.

Good’s ex-husband said she had just dropped off her 6-year-old son at school when she encountered the ICE agents, The Associated Press reported.

The victim tried to “weaponize her vehicle” to run over an officer near an ICE vehicle stuck on a snow-lined street before he opened fire, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said.

State and local officials have strongly disputed claims the shooting, captured on video, was done in self-defense as tensions exploded amid this week’s deployment of some 2,000 federal agents as part of the latest surge in the Trump administration’s nationwide immigration enforcement crackdown and following claims of welfare fraud in the Somali immigrant community.

Still, loved ones and leaders paused to remember the newcomer to Minnesota as “an amazing human being.”

“Renee was one of the kindest people I’ve ever known. She was extremely compassionate,” her mother, Donna Ganger, told the Minnesota Star Tribune. “She’s taken care of people all her life … She was loving, forgiving and affectionate.”

A mother of three, Good had two children, ages 15 and 12, from her first marriage, The Associated Press reported. Her 6-year-old child’s father died in 2023, according to the Star Tribune. “There’s nobody else in his life,” the child’s grandfather told the newspaper.

After spending most of her life in Colorado, Good briefly moved to Kansas to live with her parents for a time after her husband – a military veteran – died, her father, Tim Ganger, told The Washington Post.

 “She had a good life, but a hard life,” he said. “She was a wonderful person.” 

 Good’s death hit her family especially hard because it was her older sister’s birthday, her uncle, Robert Ganger, 

She is “a neighbor who, you know, is not a terrorist. Not an extremist,” Joan Rose told KMBC. “That was just a mom who loved her kids, loved her spouse.”

On her social media accounts, Good described herself as a “poet and writer and wife and mom,” according to the AP. She recently said she was “experiencing Minneapolis,” posting a pride flag emoji on her Instagram account.

A Pinterest account with her name features photos of Good smiling and holding a young child against her cheek, along with saved posts about tattoos, hairstyles and home decorating.

 Good also was a devoted Christian who took part in youth mission trips to Northern Ireland when she was younger, her ex-husband told the AP. She also loved to sing and participated in a chorus in high school before studying vocal performance in college, he said. 

 Good attended Old Dominion University in Virginia, graduating in 2020 with an English degree, the school said in a statement. She appeared to have won a prize for her work in 2020, a Facebook post from the school indicates. 

A short bio mentions she hosted a podcast with her late second husband, Tim Macklin.

“May Renee’s life be a reminder of what unites us: freedom, love, and peace. My hope is for compassion, healing, and reflection at a time that is becoming one of the darkest and most uncertain periods in our nation’s history,” Old Dominion President Brian O. Hemphill said in the statement.
