Vanessa Guillen's casket is loaded into a horse-drawn carriage before mourners attend a memorial service for her in Houston, Texas. Spc. Guillen, a 20-year-old U.S. Army specialist who was murdered in April, will be remembered with a public memorial.
Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy said a review of the culture at Fort Hood will help identify and fix the "root causes" that have led to violent acts at the base.
The Catholic service will be streamed live from the Cesar Chavez High School, where there once was as a"passionate" high school athlete, school district officials said. She played soccer, ran track and cross country, and graduated in the top 15% of her class in 2018, according to her family. "Anyone is welcome to come by and pay their respects to U.S Army Specialist Vanessa Guillen," the post said."Please share and if you can, please attend the event for Vanessa Guillen. Let’s honor her beautiful life and thank Vanessa Guillen for her service into serving the United States."
People were encouraged to bring flowers, candles, paintings of Vanessa and other items to honor her. All attendees were required to wear masks. President Trump vowed to help the family with funeral expenses after meeting with him in the Oval Office."If you need help with the funeral financially, I will help," the president told the family.
