The daughter of the 4th grade teacher who was killed in the Texas school shooting is describing her mother as nothing short of a “hero.”
As we reported, Eva Mireles was one of the 21 victims whose lives were lost in the tragic mass shooting this week at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde. In the days since, dozens of friends and family members have taken to social media to pay tribute to the beloved educator, who worked in the Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District for 17 years — but no post was more gut-wrenching than the one written by the daughter Eva left behind, Adalynn.
In a note shared on her social pages, Adalynn said she’s still in disbelief and never imagined writing a goodbye to her mom, who reportedly used her body to shield students from the gunman’s bullets. Reminiscing about the moments they shared together, Adalynn said she and Eva were best friends who loved quoting TikToks, sang karaoke, talked on the phone every day after work, and fought over the silliest things before laughing it off.
