Conn. funerals wrapping up after wrenching week

Posted: Updated:
NEWTOWN, Conn. -

The funerals for the victims of a Connecticut elementary school shooting are wrapping up after a wrenching week of farewells in Newtown, Conn.

Services are scheduled Saturday in Connecticut for 7-year-old Josephine Gay and 6-year-old Ana Marquez-Greene. A service is also planned in Utah for 6-year-old Emilie Parker.

Twenty children and six adults were killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School on Dec. 14. The lone gunman also killed his mother before going on the rampage and then committing suicide.

A spokeswoman for the Connecticut Funeral Directors Association says the last funerals it knows of are taking place on Saturday, although some of the burials are private.
