Tulsans are remembering a grandmother shot and killed at work.

Customers have been stopping by the Shell Station at 36th and Harvard where 55-year-old Peggy Gayton was gunned down Thursday night.

They've set up a wreath, candles and signed a card that'll be given to her family.

Gayton was raising her five year old granddaughter.

One regular customer, Vanessa Archambo, said, "My heart just broke when I heard about it. We had just been talking. I had been in here the day before or a couple days and we were talking about Christmas and grandkids, so she'll be very missed."

Amber Hundley, another customer, said, "I think it's important, like I said, for her granddaughter and her family to know that she came to work every day and she had a smile on her face and she was friendly. She was a good person to be around."

Police need help tracking down the shooter. Surveillance video of the suspects can be seen at Newson6.com.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crimestoppers at 918-596-COPS.
