Gabby Petito’s funeral will be held Sunday in her hometown of Long Island, New York.

“Services for our sweet Gabby will be held at Moloney Funeral Home in Holbrook on Sunday September 26th from 12pm-5 pm. Thank to all for your support and love,” Gabby Petito's father Joseph Petito posted on Facebook.

Gabby Petito's death and disappearance sparked national attention. The 22-year-old had gone on a cross-country trip with her fiance, Brian Laundrie. Here remains were discovered on Sept. 19 in Bridger–Teton National Forest in Wyoming.

Joseph Petito has been active on social media with pictures of his daughter. He has also thanked those who have been dedicated to her case.

"Thank you all for showing your support for #GabbyPetito," he said in a Facebook post on Friday.

"It is humbling to see all of the communities around the country and the world supporting her."

Joseph Petito has encouraged those who want to support Gabby to donate to “The Gabby Petito Foundation.” He stated that “No one should have to find their child on their own.”

“We are creating this foundation to give resources and guidance on bringing their children home. We are looking to help people in similar situations as Gabby. #gabbypetito #gabbypetitofoundation.org” Joseph Petito said in a Twitter post.

Gabby Petito was a YouTuber and social media enthusiast. She had documented her trip with Laundrie, who accompanied her in a van.

Laundrie returned to Florida without her, which eventually led to her becoming an official missing person.

Officials have also confirmed that her death was a homicide, an autopsy is still being completed to determine exactly what had happened.

Laundrie has since gone missing as well and is considered a person of interest in the case. He has currently not been charged with a crime.
