SPRINGFIELD, Ore - Heather Mulgrave was a dance instructor and the owner of the Body and Soul Studio and Dance in Springfield.

Friends tell KVAL her passion was to dance and Thursday night, they danced just for her.

Around 70 or 80 people came out to Springfield's Body and Soul Thursday, mourning the loss of Heather Mulgrave, praying for her 10-year old son Jakobi, and honoring the other victims.
This includes 11-year old Nima Gibba who was also a student at the studio.

Friends and loved ones brought flowers and pictures and shared hugs, tears, and memories.

Lindsey Shields, a friend and co-workers of Heather says, "Heather was one of the most caring studio owners and it was all about the children."

Scott Lecolar, a friend of Jakobi and Heather Musgrave says, "to find out is really hard."

Heather's co-workers say they invited all the kids to come in and dance out their feelings at the studio, saying that's what Heather would want.
