Nearly 1,500 Marysville, Wash. citizens and students came together to comfort those still grieving one year after a tragic shooting at Pilchuck High School, where a student shot five classmates, killing four before shooting himself on 24 October 2014. A chaplain candidate and master resiliency trainer from the 364th ESC supported the event with a restoration and resiliency station for the event. More than 80 school-aged children of Army Reserve Soldiers attend Marysville School District Schools. “We are here to support the community. We work in Marysville and many Army Reserve Soldier’s children attend the schools,” said Master Sgt. Richard Montgomery, 364th ESC Master Resiliency Trainer. “Embrace your family, pay attention to what you are feeling and know that, eventually, you will bounce back. Find your resiliency in the people you love,” he added. The community also participated in other moments of reflection that included a memorial walk around the campus and the planting on nearly 10,000 tulip bulbs on the school grounds.
