Less than one week after Kate Steinle was gunned down on a pier in San Francisco, her brother reflected on the life of his sister to ABC News, saying he will miss her smile, kindness and warmth.
Her brother Brad Steinle told ABC News on Sunday he is heartbroken his sister won't get to meet his unborn daughter, who is due in a few months.
Kate Steinle, 32, was walking the pier with her father last week when she was shot dead, authorities said.
The suspect, Francisco Sanchez, told ABC's San Francisco station KGO-TV that he started wandering on Pier 14 on Wednesday after taking sleeping pills he found in a dumpster. He said he then picked up a gun that he found and that it went off.
Sanchez, 45, was arrested an hour later, authorities said. He was formally charged with murder on Monday, officials said.
Kate Steinle's father and brother declined to comment to ABC News regarding the suspect, but a devastated Brad Steinle told KGO-TV his sister was his best friend.
"The reason I feel the need to do these interviews is to let everybody know how amazing my sister was," he said to KGO-TV. "She was a beautiful person inside and out."
Her father, Jim Steinle, told KGO-TV that Kate was "kind, thoughtful, spiritual, deep, caring, loving."
He added, "We want the people in the world to know, and in San Francisco to know, that kindness is going to win this battle against evil and Kate would want that."
Her friend Elizabeth Turner told KGO-TV that Kate was compassionate and full of energy. "She had the world in front of her," Turner said.

Riots? No?
Yeah, but she was White and the murderer isn’t. The politicians let the murderer in precisely because he isn’t White.
San Francisco is a cesspool of communists Democratic garbage. They seem to not want to be a part of America.
Well, it's what won WWII. Wait, what?
It's the leadership. Same can be said of many cities up and down both coasts, as well as internally. Denver, Austin, Philly, Chicago, etc. Don't just paint one city. There's normal folks in cities, but they help elect the slime Democrat leaders that mess up America.
I’m glad but surprised they’re keeping this in the news..
My heart is broken. Having lost a daughter to breast cancer, I can only imagine the pain and suffering this family is going through. At least, we had the time with our child as she was slipping away!!! To have your daughter standing by you, full of life one second...and the next second, she is gone...must be the most painful thing a family can suffer.
Thank you POTUS, Obama & the Democrat Party, for allowing human scum like this killer to roam the streets of San Francisco, unabated by you liberal Democrat low life!!! I wish you all no evil....that is only God’s judgement....but i do believe “Hell” is waiting for the likes of you politically correct murderers. You are, every one of you, from Obama on down, just as guilty of murder as the maniac, hate monger that pulled the trigger, the took the life of this innocent, fine lady!!!
Americans,,,,,all, you should be ashamed of yourselves, supporting this Obamabot” vermin of humanity!!!
That he was illegal was first mentioned way down at the bottom of the article
“Kate, check your privilege.”
I just hope that after the family has had time to grieve, that they get the best damned lawyer available and sue everyone in SF that was even close to being involved in the decision to release the killer!
Perhaps it is time for vigilante justice. There is no question of this guys guilt so if law enforcement were to just turn their back and let justice be meted out. Maybe news videos of him hanging from a tree in a San Francisco park would send a message to others like him.
