“It’s been a piece of our heart that’s been taken from us. It’s impossible to replace it.”

A row of crosses stretches out on an empty Odessa parking lot. Each cross represents one of the seven victims killed in Saturday’s shooting.
From Marfa Public Radio:
Leilah Hernandez was 15 years old. She had just started her sophomore year at Odessa High School. And over the Labor Day weekend she was with her family at a car dealership when she was fatally shot.
Her name is now written on a white cross, as part of a memorial honoring her and the six others killed in the mass shooting in Odessa.
