Paul Wynn鈥檚 niece Lenna Cook travelled from Kamloops with other family members for the memorial vigil on the first anniversary of the July 25, 2022 shootings in 91原创 City and Township.

鈥淗e was my favorite uncle,鈥� Cook told the 91原创 Advance Times.

鈥淗e was awesome. I loved him, I miss him terribly and I can鈥檛 wait to see him again.鈥�

She was among the more than 200 people who attended the Tuesday afternoon vigil at the Vineyard Church in 91原创 City on the first anniversary of the shootings that claimed Wynn鈥檚 life, the life of Steven Furness.

On July 25, 2022, Jordan Daniel Goggin attacked and shot four people between midnight and 5:45 a.m.

Wynn and Furness were both killed, a woman was seriously injured, and another man was shot in the leg. Police shot Goggin shortly after the last attack, killing him.

In his remarks at the vigil, Pastor Leith White talked about the lack of services for homeless people.

鈥淭hey are indeed vulnerable, and were exceeding vulnerable last July,鈥� White commented.

White said addressing homelessness 鈥渞equires a community to respond, a community to engage [to be] a community that will determine that it is not acceptable that there are individuals without a shelter, without a home and unable to change their circumstances on their own.鈥�

White read a statement from the Wynn family that described him as a 鈥済ift,鈥� always there to help his parents without ever asking, and 鈥渁 terrific big brother.鈥�

At the time of his death, Paul was in recovery and showing signs of progress, his family said.

鈥淗e went from what would be described as rock bottom to writing amazing letters. Some of these letters were about what he went through in his years on the streets and how sorry he was for letting everybody down.鈥�

Stewart Furness, Steven鈥檚 father renewed his call for a new 鈥渓ow-barrier鈥� space for homeless people in 91原创 City, a call he said he has made in meetings with all levels of government, to no avail.

鈥淚t is a local problem, and a problem that is not being addressed, in my view,鈥� he said.

A year ago, Anita Soderberg, who works with the homeless in 91原创 City, called the shootings 鈥渉eartbreaking.鈥�

鈥淭oday is a very tough day because it鈥檚 like we鈥檙e living it over again,鈥� Soderberg told the 91原创 Advance Times on Tuesday.

鈥淔or me, it鈥檚 not forgotten, and we should never forget them.鈥�

United Churches of 91原创 social justice advocate Gillian McLeod closed the vigil with a prayer and a moment of silence.

鈥淲e are here to remember,鈥� she said, 鈥渢o honour the victims, the fallen and survivors.鈥�
