Fans of pop singer Ariana Grande held a memorial Sunday in Boca Raton for the victims of last week’s concert bombing in Manchester England.

They gathered at Patch Reef Park in for a balloon release to honor those who died.

Twenty people were killed in the attack outside the Manchester Arena where the Boca Raton native wrapped up her concert. 

One of the organizers of the event, Randi Cass, also designed “Pray for Manchester" t-shirts with Grande's logo.

So far Cass has helped raise $6,000.
