Chiefs star Harrison Butker ‘sends jersey to family of Lisa Lopez-Galvan – who was killed in Kansas City Super Bowl parade shooting – amid claims from relative they want to bury her in the shirt of her favorite player’

Kansas City Chiefs star Harrison Butker has stepped in to grant the wish of the family of Lisa Lopez-Galvan, who was killed during the shooting at the Chiefs’ Super Bowl parade last week.

Lopez-Galvan, 43, was killed and at least 22 others were injured when gunfire broke out at the Chiefs’ Super Bowl celebrations outside Union Station in Kansas City on Valentine’s Day.

Two juveniles were charged with crimes connected to the mass shooting, authorities said Friday, as the city tries to recover in the aftermath of the violence.

The mother-of-two, who favorite player was Butker, had attended the parade with family and friends wearing the placekicker’s white No. 7 Chiefs jersey.

Following her death, a relative put out a plea to Chiefs Kingdom, revealing that the family want to bury the Kansas City DJ in a Butker jersey.

‘#ChiefsKingdom I need your help… the son of Lisa Lopez-Galvan wants his mom to be put to rest in a white @buttkicker7 jersey .. the same she wore the day of the parade,’ they wrote in a since-deleted post on X, formerly known as Twitter.

‘We can’t find them anywhere … anyone have any idea where we can look?’

He later replied to the thread to clarify that it was Lopez-Galvan’s husband, not her son, who made the request.

Although the post has since been taken down, it managed to draw a lot of attention, including a response from Fanatics, the NFL’s official online retailer.

But most importantly, it made its way to Butker, who sent one of his jerseys to the Lopez-Galvan family.

‘@buttkicker7 came through w the jersey #kcstrong,’ the relative shared on Monday. ‘#Chiefskingdom always gets it done,’ he wrote in another post.

Representatives for the three-time Super Bowl champion confirmed the jersey had reached the family, according to the Kansas City Star.

The family is reportedly now hoping to get jerseys for Lopez-Galvan’s daughter and son.

Lopez-Galvan, whose DJ name was ‘Lisa G,’ was an extrovert and devoted mother from a prominent Latino family in the area, said Rosa Izurieta and Martha Ramirez, two childhood friends who worked with her at a staffing company.

A GoFundMe campaign was set up for the Lopez-Galvan family following the horrific shooting.

Popstar Taylor Swift, who is dating Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, donated $100,000 to the fundraiser.

The songstress, who wasn’t at the rally Wednesday after jetting in to Australia for the next leg of her Eras Tour, made two $50,000 donations to the GoFundMe page.

Meanwhile, her NFL beau finally matched her donations, with a a pair of gifts of $50,000 from his charity, the Eighty-Seven & Running Foundation.

However, it only came after Kelce took waves of criticism for partying in the wake of the shooting.

Kelce was among the Chiefs stars who went ahead with a ‘scaled down’ celebration just hours after a mass shooting saw the team’s Super Bowl parade descend into tragedy. However, other teammates stayed away from the party.

The 22 people injured ranged between 8 and 47 years old, with half under 16.  Eleven children were taken to a children’s hospital, nine of them with gunshot wounds.

On Friday it was announced two teenagers have been charged as juveniles, despite a prosecutor previously saying they would be accused as adults.
