But on Monday night, thousands around the nation came together to celebrate her life after the comedian was killed in inner-city Melbourne while walking home from a gig last week. 

More than 100 people attended a candlelit vigil in Prince’s Square in Launceston. The vigil was organised by three local 18-year-olds and a 25-year-old formerly from Melbourne. 

Facebook brought the three strangers together after Natina Monteleoene posted asking if anyone had organised a Launceston Vigil. From there Lachlan Hinds, Sophie Burgess, Grace Badcock put their hands up to help organise the event. 

“Princes Park [in Melbourne] is a very special place for all of us. it was a safe place that I walked through for six years everyday,” Ms Monteleoene. 

“It was just so shocking to hear what happened so we thought we’d stand with the rest of Australia in solidarity.”

Nineteen-year-old Lachlan Hinds studies in Melbourne and lives near the park where Eurydice died. 

“It’s important for women to champion, but just as important for men to be involved in the conversation,” he said. 

“It’s not one they should own and dictate, but it’s one they can assist in.

“Most men don’t attack women, but there is still a culture associated with the way men talk and associate with women.” 

The silent vigil was held and then Grace Badcock sung and members of the community were invited to use the microphone to pay their respects. 

Women’s Legal Service Tasmania chief executive Susan Fahey said it was a sign of progress to see areas holding vigils.

“We need to be taking action, so we don't have to remember anyone else this way,” Ms Fahey said. “We have to be teaching our sons from a very young age that it's not OK to do this to women.”
