MONROE, Mich. — Mourners embraced family members Saturday as they filed past the closed casket of a 5-year-old found buried along a river, paying final respects to a girl described by one of them as “Monroe’s little angel.”
About 700 people attended the funeral in Stewart Road Church of God for Nevaeh Buchanan, whose disappearance triggered a search by police and residents.
After the service, a procession led by nine police officers on motorcycles traveled 2 1/2 miles to St. Joseph Cemetery. They were followed by a Harley-Davidson motorcycle drawing the hearse bearing Nevaeh’s casket. Next were another 60 motorcycles and about 100 cars.
