"SNIP.........

Her death has triggered an outpouring of generosity after her family released a statement saying the best way to honour her memory was by "making the community a better place."

"Volunteer your time and labour or donate to a homeless shelter. Tell them Chrissy sent you." (her family asked)

Her fiancé, Tyler Ferguson, reacted publicly for the first time to the outpouring of generosity with a message on an online fundraiser page.

"My beautiful fiancée would want nothing else than to have a little bit of good come out of this tragedy," he wrote. "All of the love and support I have received over the last 48 hours has truly humbled me."
