In one day, John Holcombe lost his pregnant wife, three children, and his parents. They were among the 26 killed by a lone gunman in a small-town Texas church on Sunday, Nov. 5. Eight of his family members died that day.
Crystal Holcombe was in an advanced stage of pregnancy, sharing happy moments on her Facebook page until Saturday night, when she boasted the third and first places her daughters earned at a cooking show. Hours later, the mood of the page turned to alarm, with friends asking about her whereabouts. Then came the condolences.
