Family said Yolanda N’Gaojia, 52, died following the March 22 shooting at Calvary Baptist Church Garden of Memories Cemetery in Killeen, Texas.
N’Gaojia’s ex-husband Kineh said in a Facebook post: “I have no words because I can’t believe this is real.”
He told local CBS affiliate KWTX that N’Gaojia was visiting her son Amir Tajai-Kineh N’Gaojia’s grave when she was shot.
Killeen police at the scene confirmed a second victim had non-life-threatening injuries after the shooting and was treated at the scene.
