The Florida woman killed by her husband during a rage over and NFL game was reported to have died protecting her children, her sister, USA TODAY reports.

Crystal Roure, 38, was fatally shot by her husband, Jason Kenney, on December 22 after she asked him to turn down the Monday Night Football game between the San Francisco 49ers, his favorite team, and the Indianapolis Colts. Kenney, who was reported to have "been drinking during the evening," became enraged that Roure told him "she didn't want to watch football" anymore, the Polk County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.

Roure was reported to have told her 12-year-old son to go to a neighbor and call 911 when "the argument got really heated" and the boy said he heard a gunshot as he was fleeing the home. Responding deputies found Kenney dead and her 13-year-old daughter with gunshot wounds to the shoulder and face when they arrived at the scene.

The 13-year-old girl is reportedly "doing well on her recovery" and "it really is a miracle that the bullet missed every major thing," Stephanie Roure, Crystal's sister, told USA TODAY.

“She said, ‘I begged him, don’t shoot me, don’t shoot me, don’t shoot me, and he shot me anyway,’” Sheriff Grady Judd previously said during the press conference.

The 12-year-old boy and the couple's 1-year-old daughter, who responding deputies found sleeping in her crib, were uninjured. Kenney reportedly fled the scene and called his sister, who lives in upstate New York, and told her he had "done something" wrong, adding that it would be the last time they would talk before driving to his father's home, where responding deputies attempted to get him out of a shed before he fatally shot himself.

Authorities found a note from Crystal during a search of the family's home in which she urged her husband to get help.

“You’re drinking, you’re using cocaine again. This is not the way the family should be. You need God,” the note states, according to Judd.

Crystal's children are reported to be in the custody of their grandparents following the incident.

“The entire family was destroyed,” Judd said. “Our homicide detectives are distraught. When you go in there, there is a beautiful Christmas tree with lots of Christmas presents under it, just like the nuclear family should be.”
