Watch again as a memorial was held for Trump rally shooting victim Corey Comperatore on Thursday (18 July).
A visitation for friends of the former fire chief took place at Laube Hall in Freeport.
Mr Comperatore, 50, had worked as a project and tooling engineer, was an Army reservist and spent many years as a volunteer firefighter after serving as chief, according to his obituary.
He died Saturday (13 July) during the attempt on Trump’s life at the rally in Butler.
Mr Comperatore spent the final moments of his life shielding his wife and daughter from gunfire, officials said.
