Lisa Lopez, a longtime friend, who works as The Star’s newsroom executive administrative assistant, described Lopez-Galvan as the “most wonderful, beautiful person.”

Friends and family claimed Lopez-Galvan’s adult son, as well as two of her minor cousins, were injured in the shooting. Lopez-Galvan was in her 40s and lived with her husband and two children in Shawnee.
