At least 58 people were killed Monday morning at a Las Vegas music festival, in the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history. These are their stories.

Sonny Melton, 29

The Tennessee native was at the festival with his wife, Heather.

She told a local TV station that Sonny, who was a registered nurse, saved her life while bullets felled their fellow concertgoers.

“He saved my life. He grabbed me and started running when I felt him get shot in the back,” Heather told WSMV. “I want everyone to know what a kind-hearted, loving man he was, but at this point, I can barely breathe.”

The couple had just gotten married last summer. Their wedding site on TheKnot.com read, “We were the couple that never should have met, fallen in love or had a future together....but life is funny and we believe God brought us together as soul mates.”

Quinton Robbins, 20

The University of Nevada-Las Vegas student was at the concert with his girlfriend, Ally Plumlee.

“He was an amazing young man who had a huge heart and would do anything for anyone,” the victim’s aunt, Doreen Hawk-Wells, wrote on Facebook. “He overcame health issues and did not let them interfere with living his life to the fullest.”

He was also passionate about sports and worked as a recreational assistant for Henderson, Nevada.

Tyce Jones told Newsweek that his friend was “a pay-it-forward kinda guy” and that he “always had a smile on his face and was a nice guy. He loved his family and loved to coach his little brother’s flag football team. He will be missed.”

Jordan McIldoon, 23

The British Columbia, Canada native was about to start trade school and was working as a heavy-duty mechanic apprentice, his parents said.

He was with his girlfriend, Amber Bereza, who was unharmed in the shooting. Bereza’s brother, Cole, wrote on Facebook, “You'll always be a hero jordan thank you for saving my sister you forever be in my heart.”

A woman named Heather Goozle posted on Facebook that McIldoon died in her arms. “I am right outside of the festival grounds. We are not allowed to go anywhere. I am with a young man who died in my arms! RIP Jordan mcildoon from British Columbia,” she wrote. “I can’t believe this just happened!!!”

One friend described him as “one of the kindest, funny and most sincere guys” she knew.

“Every single party I [threw] he was always the best person to have there. Or to just hang out with him at the skatepark sitting on the tailgate of his truck. This is beyond words,” Alina Andreea Diaconu wrote on Facebook.

Sandy Casey, 35

The southern California special education took a weekend trip to the festival with a small group of teachers and staff. While others made it back safely, she did not.

“We have received information that one of our MBMS Special Education teachers, Sandy Casey (formerly Sandy McDermott), was fatally wounded. This is unbelievably sad and tragic,” Manhattan Beach Middle School’s Superintendent Mike Matthews wrote in an email to the school, according to The Daily Breeze.

“I can’t even begin to comprehend this as it hits home. This has to stop,” wrote Derek Michael Billings, who sends his children to another nearby elementary school. That school’s principal attended the festival with Casey.

Her partner, Christopher Willemse, posted a short note about her death: “The love and support that she and I have received during these trying times just shows how important this wonderful woman truly was. She lived life to the fullest and made me the happiest man in the world. I’m so grateful for the kind words and gestures, it means the world to me, especially for her.”

Jessica Klymchuk, 28

She had just gotten engaged. On Sept. 24, just one week before the shooting, her fiance Brent Irla posted a photo of his fiancé with the words, “You and me together is my favourite place to be.”

“Brent you are heaven sent. You are my one and only, You're one of a kind,” she replied in the comments.

The single mother of four from Alberta, Canada, was with Irla when she was killed.

She was a librarian and bus driver for a Catholic elementary school, the Globe and Mail reported.

Angela Gomez

The former high school cheerleader, was at the concert with her boyfriend. The high school confirmed her death on Monday.

“We received word this morning that 2015 alumnus Angie Gomez, was involved in the Vegas shooting last night,” The Riverside Polytechnic High School PTSA wrote on Facebook. “While details are still emerging, we did receive confirmation that Angie succumbed to her injuries.”

Veronika Maldonado said her friend “was a light in all of our lives” and “always had a smile on her face.”

“There’s absolutely nothing she wouldn’t do for her family, they meant the world to her,” Maldonado said. “She was studying to be a nurse and she would have been amazing, she was a natural caregiver.”

Friends quickly set up a fundraiser in her name and remembered her on social media.

“My heart is in shambles and none of this feels real,” one friend tweeted. “8 yrs of friendship & we had so much more to go. rest easy twin, you are so loved.”

Bailey Schweitzer, 20

She had graduated high school in 2015 and was just beginning her life.

She recently posted a Facebook video showing photographs of local children enjoying rides on her family’s race track.

“Bailey has been everybody’s favorite in some way or another. She has been there for anyone and everyone who knows her, young and old. I missed you already and now it’s really beyond belief,” one friend, Lyle CK Dyson, wrote on Facebook.

Her coworkers at Infinity Communications & Consulting planned a candlelight vigil to mourn her on Monday. Infinity’s CEO Fred Brakeman said Schweitzer “was always the ray of sunshine in our office on a cloudy day.”

“No one could possibly have a bad day when Bailey was around,” he said in a statement. “If you have ever called or visited our office, she was the perky one that helped direct you to the staff member you needed.”

“Our friend and colleague will be greatly missed and there will never be a replacement for her in our hearts.”

Rachael Parker, 33

She was with some fellow coworkers from Manhattan Beach, California when the shots rang out.

She was a records technician for the force for 10 years, the agency said in a statement. She died at the hospital.

Police spokeswoman Kristie Colombo said Parker mostly worked the front desk.

“She’s a very popular person. A lot of people knew her as the face of the department when you come in,” Colombo told The Daily Beast. “She’s the first person you encounter, so she did personally affect a lot of people’s lives ... and put smiles on people’s faces.”

Lisa Romero, 48

Her family was her world, according to her Facebook bio. She was a disciplinary secretary at Miyamura High School in Gallup, New Mexico.

Her cousin described her as a “happy-go-lucky person.”

“She loved her kids and husband. And for this to happen so senselessly. It’s a heartbreaking day for us all,” Ashley Romero told HuffPost.

Gallup-McKinley County Schools described the longtime employee in a press release as “an incredible loving and sincere friend, mentor, and advocate for students.”

“You were a good woman, may God welcome you into his heavenly Kingdom,” her cousin, Robert Romero, wrote on Facebook.

Charleston Hartfield, 34

He was a Las Vegas police officer, youth football coach, and military veteran. To his players, he was known as “Coach Chucky.”

In a Facebook post Monday, the Henderson Cowboys mourned their beloved mentor.

“Coach Hartfield touched many lives both on and off the field. He was a great man who we all lost way too early,” the team said. “Players and alumni, Coach Chucky would want you to keep to the plan and keep moving forward.

“Use as motivation and inspiration; not for sadness and sorrow.”

Friend Troy Rhett told the Las Vegas Review-Journal, “I don’t know a better man than Charles.” Stan King said his friend, who was in the National Guard, was “the most true-blue American guy I’ve ever met.”

On Facebook, he described himself as a father, husband, and self-published author. Days before the massacre, he was tagged in a Facebook picture of his book, Memoirs of a Public Servant, which detailed his experiences as a Vegas police officer.

He was off duty at the time of the massacre.

Susan Smith, 53

She was an office manager at Vista Fundamental Elementary School in Simi Valley, California. A Facebook post from Vista PTA said that the 16-year veteran of the Simi Valley Unified School District would be missed.

“Our hearts are full of sorrow for the passing of Susan Smith. She was a wonderful woman, an advocate for our children, and a friend. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family,” the post read.

People remembered her “endless smiles” and her “sweet spirit” when Vista PTA announced the news.

He was at the concert with his mother, Debbie Allen, who said her son arrived earlier than her so they were not together when the gunfire started. “I was trying to run towards where I thought he might be, but a man wouldn't let me.
