Celebration of life being held for Russia Nicholson tonight

Nicholson was 5 months pregnant when she was found murdered last month. 

Family, friends, and even strangers will be gathering tonight to remember Russia Nicholson. 

The West Kelowna woman was 5 months pregnant when she was found murdered in a Kelowna Orchard last month. 

Brianna Winrow, Nicholson's childhood friend, is helping organize the event tonight. 

"I just really want everyone to come together and celebrate the time she did spend here," she says "She was a really great person, if anybody was ever in trouble, she was always there right away. She would seriously take her shirt off her back for you and for someone to do this is just insane."

The celebration of life is being held at The Habitat from 9pm-2am. 

Winrow says they'll also be raising money for Nicholson's family, to help cover the funeral. 

No one has been charged in Nicholson's death so far.
