CORDELE, GA (WALB) -

Cordele Police and GBI agents continue to investigate the death of a 5-month old baby.

Shana Craft says she woke up yesterday around 8:30, found her baby unresponsive, and immediately called 911.

Jaryd Raelynn Craft was transported to Crisp Regional Medical Center where she was pronounced dead.

Doctors believe she died from aspiration.

Family members say they're struggling to deal with the tragedy.

"She wasn't here long enough to love her enough you know, it's still just a shock," says Raelynn's great grandfather.

A fund has been set up in honor of Raelynn Craft at Regions bank in Cordele.
