On the eve of the 25th anniversary of the Columbine High School shooting, a vigil will be held to honor the 12 students and one teacher who lost their lives in the tragic event. The vigil, organized by gun safety and other advocacy groups, is the primary public commemoration of the anniversary, with a more subdued tone compared to previous milestone years.
Former Arizona Congresswoman Gabby Giffords, a vocal advocate for gun safety following her own experience with gun violence, will be among the speakers at the vigil. Also sharing their stories will be individuals like Nathan Hochhalter, whose sister was paralyzed in the Columbine shooting, leading to their mother's tragic death months later.
