    Teachers are already heroes. They shouldn’t have to risk their lives on top of an already difficult, underpaid job.

    The State of Texas should be paying for all funerals & should give all families compensation.
  • The cops took so long to engage the shooter, because they where “afraid of being shot” meanwhile a true hero was way ahead of them laying her body on the line for those children.

    To see a beautiful person and her family hurt by this is heartbreaking. My condolences to her family.
  • She was always destined to be a hero. Some people just know what they are here for & sometimes it means they are the ones leaving this world too soon. Heros aren't doing it for anything but to bring out the good in the group..
  • This is so tragic. I wish all this hate would just stop. God be with his family and these poor children
  • I been thinking about this a lot lately and I didn't even know the children . My condollences go to all the children and families
