UVALDE, Texas —"It all goes back to the day of the tragedy," Javier Cazares, father of 9-year-old Jacklyn Cazares, who was killed in the Robb Elementary School mass shooting, told ABC News."I'm a parent first and my main goal is to fight for what's right; to do what needs to be done around here," he said."Not just for my daughter and her friends who passed, but also for her classmates who survived.
Cazares's family, among many others from Uvalde, have been to the Texas State Capitol in Austin and the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., to call for stricter gun control in the wake of the shooting. At the cook-off event, the Cazareses set up a rock-painting station for supporters to make decorative rocks for Jacklyn's rock garden.
Pargas said he's received support from community members despite the controversy, and hopes his 24-year tenure as county commissioner speaks for itself."I hope people can remember the good things I've done for the community," Pargas told ABC News."I want to continue serving the community well."
