Mourners gathered for a funeral in San Francisco on Friday for Ann Mannix and daughter Katherine Mannix, the women slain on Oct. 10 at their residence in Strawberry.<\/p>\n

Authorities said the killer was Kevin Mannix, the husband of one victim and the father of the other. The preliminary investigation indicates that he shot both women and then fatally shot himself at the home on Strawberry Circle, according to the Marin County Sheriff\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n

Ann Mannix, 65, was a retired deputy chief for the San Francisco Police Department and the first woman in the department\u2019s SWAT team. Katherine Mannix, 24, was a nursing student at College of Marin. Kevin Mannix, 68, was a retired San Francisco police sergeant.<\/p>\n

The service was held at St. Ignatius Church, and the streets surrounding the church were blocked off. Lines of police motorcycles sat across the street and a large fire truck with its ladder raised stood at one of the church entrances.<\/p>\n

The church was packed with mourners, friends and family. Before the ceremony began, the sounds of somber greetings, sniffles and words of consolation filled the space. In a sea of black, spots of green were visible from the nursing scrubs other students wore in honor of Katherine\u00a0Mannix.<\/p>\n

As the service began, family members walked in behind the clergy, pallbearers carried the two caskets, and dozens of police officers from San Francisco and elsewhere trailed.<\/p>\n

The casket of Ann Mannix was draped in the U.S. flag.<\/p>\n

Her brother, Richard Corriea, and her surviving children, Lauren Mannix and Kevin Mannix, spoke during the service.<\/p>\n

Corriea recounted fond childhood memories of his sister and spoke of her talents, her career and her love for her children.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnn, as I told you a thousand times, I was always proud of you and delighted by your accomplishments,\u201d he said. \u201cMy sister had finesse and grace. She would float into a room with a gait of confidence and a smile of approachability. That\u2019s Ann.\u201d<\/p>\n

The siblings recalled her love and devotion to them, saying she always told them she loved them \u201cto the moon and back.\u201d They also shared stories of their sister, remembering her adventurous spirit and her desire to become a nurse.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy baby sister was the best friend my mom blessed me with in 2001,\u201d Lauren Mannix said. \u201cShe is spunky, beautiful, smart, kind and always keeps you on your toes.\u201d<\/p>\n

She told a story of her little sister, who was eager to join her and her friends when they were younger.<\/p>\n

\u201cKatie, I spent years locking you out of my room. I would give anything to hear you knocking again,\u201d she said. \u201cI know you are here with us today. Just know that my door is always open, that you are so loved, and that Kevin and I will carry you with us in everything we do.\u201d<\/p>\n

No one mentioned her father by name, but spoke of the unjust violence that took the lives of the two women.<\/p>\n

The homicide investigation is ongoing. Marin County sheriff\u2019s spokesperson Miguel Almaguer said Thursday there were no recent developments.<\/p>\n

Previously, a close friend of Ann Mannix said she had been planning a divorce.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe said it was hard getting a divorce, but she said it was for the best,\u201d said Marie Hurabiell, a San Francisco resident. \u201cShe was very hopeful about the future.\u201d<\/p>\n
