Tucson, Arizona (CNN) -- A memorial service will be held Thursday for the youngest victim of the Arizona mass shooting a day after Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who was critically injured in the attack, opened her eyes for the first time.
Giffords is the victim of a shooting that killed six, including 9-year-old Christina Green. Fourteen more people were wounded at the political event in Tucson.
Suspect Jared Loughner allegedly fired at the lawmaker first, striking her in the head.
A neighbor had brought Christina to the event to meet the lawmaker because the girl had recently been elected to the student council at her elementary school. The neighbor, Susan Heilman, was shot three times and is recovering, but is struggling emotionally with the girl's death, relatives said. CNN
