(WTXL) - Mourners filled the Paramount Theater in Charlottesville to remember Heather Heyer.

The 32-year-old was killed when a car slammed into a group of counter-protesters at an alt-right rally Saturday.

At the public memorial service, her mother spoke about Heyer's desire for equality, and received a standing ovation.

Heyer worked as a paralegal in Charlottesville.

Her main duty was helping low income clients file for bankruptcy.
