UVALDE, Texas (AP) — A girl whose joy at reaching the double-digit age of 10 charmed broken hearts around the world is being remembered at a funeral Sunday. Alithia Ramirez was among the 19 children who, along with their two teachers, died on May 24 when an 18-year-old gunman opened fire with a military-style rifle inside Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. Funerals for the victims will continue into mid-June. Alithia was an aspiring artist. KENS-TV reports that President Joe Biden met with Alithia’s parents on May 29 and asked for one of her drawings to hang in the White House.
