Keyla Salazar's family had planned to celebrate her birthday with a trip to a lake, but two days after she would have turned 14, instead they will say their final goodbyes after the middle-schooler was killed in a mass shooting at a California food festival.
It's the first memorial service of the three people killed when Santino William Legan cut through a fence and opened fire on July 28 at the popular Gilroy Garlic Festival. Legan also killed 6-year-old Stephen Romero of San Jose and Trevor Irby, 25, of Romulus, New York. More than a dozen people were injured.
Keyla would have turned 14 on Sunday and the family had planned to go to a lake and celebrate, her aunt Katiuska Pimentel said. Instead, her family gathered to celebrate her life at a San Jose park, about 30 miles north of Gilroy, where they showcased artwork by the girl with a sweet smile who dreamed of becoming an animator.
"It's been very hard losing her, especially for her mother. She hasn't felt well," Lopez said Monday.
