A vigil took place in Butler County, Pa. on Wednesday evening honoring the life of the man killed at the Donald Trump rally last Saturday.
The vigil was open to the public and hosted by Lernerville Speedway to accommodate as many guests as possible. The track was a place where Comperatore worked as a first responder.
People like Corey died a hero,” speedway announcer Eric Westendorf said. “But there are heroes here every Friday night. Anytime our drivers get into a crash, the firefighters are the first ones there. Corey himself ran into and pulled a driver out of a car years ago that was on fire and burning. So, guys like Corey are the ones that run into the fire when some people run away from them. So, we could not do what we do here on Friday night without those people.
The vigil was an evening where the community could come together to remember one of their own who gave to the community over the years. Corey and his family are our neighbors, and they are just great people and there are not really any words for what has gone on this week,” Mohrbacher said. “All that we can do is pray for each other and be here for each other as a community. I am so proud to say I am from Sarver.”
