'These kids are innocent children.'

"These kids are innocent children," Wolfenden told reporters, worried for her grandsons who are five and eight years old, only a few years younger than the students killed at the Covenant Presbyterian Church-affiliated elementary school on March 27. "When you're in the medical field, you want to fix it but when you get something like this, you can't fix it."
Despite the rate of gun violence in the country, Lucas said it's still easy to think it won't hit one's own community. She said the shooting made the two women want to do something, even just by bringing flowers to the site where residents left bouquets and stuffed toys at the church property entrance, which was guarded by a police cruiser.
