A fundraiser set up to support racing commentator John Hunt, after his wife and two daughters were killed in a crossbow attack in Bushey has past ÂŁ45,000.
Carol Hunt, along with daughters, Hannah, and Louise, were found fatally injured at their Hertfordshire home last week.
A 26 year old suspect from Enfield arrested on suspicion of their murders remains in a serious condition in hospital.
Paying tribute to the three victims on Saturday, Mr Hunt and his third daughter, Amy, said: "The devastation that we are experiencing cannot be put into words."
In a further statement read to Sky Sports Racing viewers by his colleague, Matt Chapman who has set up the fundraising page for Mr Hunt paid tribute to his "magnificently inspirational" surviving daughter.
He said: "Notwithstanding the horrid evil that's swept through our lives, wreaking devastation on an unimaginable scale, the counter to that has been the breathtaking messages of support, some of which are still to be read.
"Amy, my eldest daughter, has been magnificently inspirational with her control and support for me, which I am trying, trying so hard, to replicate.
"Every message has felt so important, the same as a reassuring hug.
"We know people are worried about us. We will get through this."
