Posted: 1:33 pm CST March 7, 2010

Family and friends said goodbye over the weekend to a mother and her two children who were brutally murdered in late February on Milwaukee's south side.

Saturday's funeral was crowded with people who came to celebrate the life of Rachel Thompson and her two children.

The three were killed in a robbery plot that netted just a few hundred dollars.

Thompson’s infant son was left by the robbers at a nearby Milwaukee church.

A co-conspirator in the crime was also killed.

The two suspects are in jail with the bond set at $1 million each.
