The mother of Charlottesville crash victim Heather Heyer thanked President Trump Monday for finally condemning the violence that led to her daughter’s death.

“Thank you, President Trump, for those words of comfort and for denouncing those who promote violence and hatred. My condolences, also, to the grieving families of the two state troopers and quick recovery to those injured,” Heyer’s mom, Susan Bro, wrote in a statement, according to NBC.

Heather was killed when a neo-Nazi rammed into her and other anti-racism protesters Saturday. Two state troopers also were killed while flying in a helicopter over the demonstrations as part of peace-keeping attempts.

Trump waited nearly two days to issue a statement that unequivocally condemned neo-Nazis and other white supremacists for the carnage.
