Buckley says goodbye to Shaquille Hargrove, will remember two more colleagues this weekend

The hearse carrying the remains of airman Shaquille Hargrove, who was shot dead on the streets of LoDo early Saturday morning, drove through Buckley Air Force Base this morning on its way to North Carolina, where Hargrove's services will be held. It was sad moment for the staff at Buckley, who will be commemorating two more residents of the base this weekend: Air Force Staff Sergeant Jesse Childress and Navy Petty Officer 3rd Class John Thomas Larimer. They were both slain on July 20, 2012, during the Aurora theater shooting. The base is offering mental counseling for staff members, as well as religious services in honor of the late military men.

And the area around 15th and Market streets, where Hargrove passed away, remain off-limits to Buckley personnel.

On Tuesday the Denver Police Department released this sketch of the man suspected to have fatally shot 19-tear-old Hargrove:
