MILWAUKEE − Rubi Patricia Vergara was a "gentle spirit" with a talent for music and a love of art, her family and friends shared at funeral services Saturday as they mourned the loss of the teenager.

Family and friends said their final farewells Monday to a substitute teacher killed in a shooting at a private religious school in Wisconsin last week, describing her as a devout Christian with Southern roots who made copious notes in her personal Bible and planned to take her children to Disney World next year.
