waukesha is a community where many of its residents have lived for generations. waukesha is also the type of community where new residents tell their friends to move here because it is so special. waukesha has held what is described as a norman rockwell type christmas parade for decades. last night our wonderful waukesha parade became the scene of a horrific tragedy. last night, that parade became a nightmare. last night, many were severely injured. last night, lives were lost during the middle of what should have been a celebration. last night, many were severely injured, lost their lives, and all were traumatized. we experienced a horrific tragedy. we have so much healing that needs to occur. waukesha, though, will not be defined by the horrific events
