She and Oscar Herrera had been married three months, but their relationship had lasted four years.
The couple lived with Oscar Herrera's mother in the 5800 block of South Aldorn Drive, near South Alvernon Way and East Benson Highway.
"He was a good person and very friendly," Dayra Herrera said. "He liked to help a lot of people."
Herrera said she last saw her husband the day he was killed, before he went to the house in the 5800 block of South Helena Stravenue where the shooting occurred.

Officials said four men went to the South Side house about 1:45 p.m. Jan. 21 after someone at the residence set up a drug deal.
The men planned to steal a small amount of marijuana, according to the Pima County Sheriff's Department.
The men came to the house and violently confronted the four people already there, one whom was a 15-year-old boy, according to Star archives.
Two men — David Ronald Kuhns Jr., 23, and Taylor Mitchell Robbins, 18 — were arrested on suspicion of first- degree murder in connection with the homicide, said Deputy Dawn Hanke, a Pima County Sheriff's Department spokeswoman.
Herrera's family members declined to talk about his involvement in the drug transaction.
Anyone with information about Rodriguez's or Moreno's location is urged to call 911 or 88-CRIME.
