After the mass shooting in Las Vegas, 87 children are coping with the loss of a parent. Of the 58 people killed at the Route 91 Harvest festival, 33 were parents. The youngest child to lose a parent was just six weeks old when his mom, Rocio Guillen-Rocha, was killed. Losing a parent in such a public and traumatic way can send a child into a tailspin, UNLV clinical psychologist Michelle Paul says.

An artist in Ohio has drawn portraits of the 58 victims of the Las Vegas shooting. Ron Moore Jr. flew to Nevada Monday to hand-deliver the last three portraits, including one of Metropolitan Police Department officer Charleston Hartfield. Over 25 days, Moore dedicated nearly 175 hours to drawing portraits of the victims. Moore was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2004. He prayed that if God would give him the ability to draw again, he would use his talent to bless others. Moore also surprised Las Vegas police with a painting of an eagle. The painting and Hartfield’s portrait will remain on display inside the Las Vegas police headquarters’ main lobby.
