Classmates have turned Savannah Hardin's desk into a memorial at Carlisle Elementary and neighbors are also creating their own memorial for the little girl.
Savannah died on Monday after she was allegedly forced to run for 3 hours on Friday until she collapsed.
It is still shocking even days after the incident. People in the community still feel the need to do something to remember the 9-year-old girl so they have set up a memorial in front of her home.
Emily Calhoun is a neighbor of the Hardins. On Thursday night she and her grandson who went to the same school as Savannah visited the memorial. The two went by the Hardin's home to drop off something special for the little girl. They brought balloons, a flower and a little teddy bear, adding to the makeshift memorial that's growing along the fence outside the home. Calhoun says she has been thinking about Savannah since her death. She says the allegations against the grandmother and step mother are hard to believe.
The memorial in front of the home is not the only one that's been set up to remember Savannah. The school she attended, Carlisle Elementary, also set up Savannah's desk in the school's lobby as a memorial. The memorial includes Savannah's artwork and school supplies, a teddy bear, an angel figurine and letters and poems written to her by her classmates.
