She was a wife, mother of two and the daughter of Port Colborne City Councillor Gary Bruno.
33-year-old Nicole Bates died early Saturday morning, after the taxi she was in collided with an SUV on Highway 3, close to Miller Road.
A GoFundMe page has raised over $65,000 so far.
The money will be put into a trust fund for her two young boys; six-year-old Aedan and two-year-old Dylan.
