NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Mourners will gather on Friday for the first of six funerals in the wake of Monday's mass shooting at The Covenant School, a private Christian school in Nashville, Tennessee.
Friends and family of 9-year-old victim Evelyn Dieckhaus were asked to wear pink and green to her funeral service on Friday afternoon.
The service for 9-year-old victim Hallie Scruggs will be on Saturday. Hallie's funeral will be at Covenant Presbyterian Church -- the church connected to the school where she was killed and where her father, Chad Scruggs, is a senior pastor. Saturday will also be the visitation and service for 61-year-old Cynthia Peak, who was a substitute teacher at The Covenant School."Her favorite roles in life were being a mom to her three children, a wife to her husband, and an educator to students," Peak's family said in a statement."We will never stop missing her."On Tuesday, beloved school custodian, 61-year-old Mike Hill, will be laid to rest.
A former local school administrator, Tricia Drake, told ABC News that her last conversation with Koonce was in August, discussing companies they used for active shooter training.
