MUSKOGEE, Okla. -
The 5 children who died in Muskogee in a shooting earlier this month have been laid to rest.
The mayor, Marlon Coleman, describes Saturday s funeral service as somber but celebratory of the 5 young lives - gone too soon. There s no way to have a joyous occasion in such a time of despair, Coleman told News on 6, the shock and horror that 5 children are gone are going to be with us for some time. I don t think cards or the funeral will help in the short term.
Coleman tells News on 6 the service was all about remembering those five children agree ranging from one year old to nine. The family gave permission for News on 6 to be outside of the funeral on Saturday afternoon. Friends and family walked out of the service tearful and emotional. Muskogee Police officers were also there to show their support.
