The funeral will take place today of 17-year-old Georgia Williams who was murdered after going missing from her home in Wellington in Telford.
Hundreds of people attended the service including 150 members of the Air Training Corp of which Georgia had been a member for four years.
The strength of community support shown to Georgia's family is said to have given them great comfort. In return everyone attending the church afterwards were invited to Georgia's "second home" Telford United, for a party in her name.
Donations instead of flowers have been asked to be made to the Help For Heroes charity and a Trust Fund has also been set up to support projects and initiatives for young people in Telford which Georgia's parents hope will be a lasting legacy for their daughter.
