City officials, victims’ families and community members gathered Wednesday to mark the fourth anniversary of the Henry Pratt workplace shooting in suburban Aurora, which left five individuals dead.
"The city of lights became Aurora Strong, which has become more than a mantra, but a way of life that has become interwoven in the very fabric of our great city," said Richard Irvin."We owe this to Russell, Clayton, Vicente, Josh and Trevor to ensure the ultimate price they paid was not in vain. Aurora remembers this day and we will forever."
"It was instantly turned into a place of heartache, pain and scars," said Lewis."So, here we are four years later, still surrounded by all this pain." "Josh, who I called the preacher. He had a southern drawl and he would always stop in my office, no matter how busy, just to say 'how ya’ll doing?'" The somber anniversary comes the same week of yet another mass shooting, this time on a college campus. During the ceremony, Aurora's congressional representatives vowed to keep their fight for gun control top of mind.
