Heather Heyer, Charlottesville Victim, Is Recalled as ‘a Strong Woman’
“Heather was a very strong woman,” said Alfred A. Wilson, manager of the bankruptcy division
at the Miller Law Group in Charlottesville, where Ms. Heyer worked as a paralegal.
“She just didn’t like the way he was judging me as a minority male that’s doing well for
myself,” Mr. Wilson said, adding that Ms. Heyer stopped seeing the man after that.
“In a split second you see a car, and you see bodies flying.”
The authorities said Ms. Heyer, 32, was killed when a car driven by a man from Ohio plowed into the crowd.
“It’s because of Heather that I started tipping people a lot better,” Ms. Blair said.
