First lady Jill Biden on Wednesday attended a candlelight vigil in Nashville honoring the six victims of the shooting at the Covenant School earlier this week, but didn’t speak at the melancholy ceremony.
The vigil featured performances by Grammy-award winning singer and Nashville-resident Sheryl Crow, country artist Margo Price, and Old Crow Medicine Show frontman Ketch Secor, who played alongside.
White candles were passed out to the estimated 400 people that gathered in One Public Square Park in downtown Nashville, less than 10 miles from where 28-year-old Audrey Hale gunned down three staff members and three children at the private Christian school on Monday.
“We’ve been not able to stop thinking about the victims,” a 28-year-old woman who attended the vigil with her two friends, but declined to give her name, told The Post.
The woman, who has called Nashville home for the last seven years, said she was not surprised by the nation’s latest mass shooting.
Jill Biden didn’t address the hundreds of mourners that gathered in downtown Nashville Wednesday night.
