[Rubi Patricia Vergara, a 14-year-old freshman at Abundant Life Christian School, and Erin Michelle West, a 42-year-old teacher and substitute coordinator at the school, were killed in a Monday morning shooting at the school in Madison, Wisconsin. Vergara was an “avid reader” and full of artistic promise, and loved singing, playing keyboard, and animals. West was described by students as “kind and caring” and “really loved her kids.” Six others were injured, with two remaining hospitalized. Vergara’s funeral service will be held Saturday in Madison, and West’s love for her children and her students was evident in the tributes paid to her by those who knew her.
