Quinn had been working for Overstock.com for several years. She and her husband lived in Sandy and were "very nice," according to neighbors. The couple did not have any children but had many friends, who were always coming and going from their home.

Along with their rings, Vanessa told her father that they were at to the mall to purchase a present for their nephew's fifth birthday party.

The family is in the process of planning a memorial service for Vanessa, tentatively scheduled to be held in Utah sometime Friday. Antrobus said he might not be able to make it because his airport is snowed in.

"There's a lot of us that have to come in from out of town," he said. "But she knew a lot of people there. She was a hard worker, determined and a good person." He said she lived a good, Christian lifestyle — "she never cussed, didn't smoke or do drugs. She was baptized and was just a good person. Such a good person. Everyone loved her." — Wendy Leonard

Brad Frantz

A promotion at work took Brad Frantz and his girlfriend to Trolley Square for a pre-Valentine's Day celebration.

Frantz, 24, worked as a certified welder on construction jobs throughout the Mountain West, including the new LDS temple in Rexburg, Idaho. He had just learned that he would become a boss. He received a company truck.

"He was on on his way," said his father, Dan Frantz, who lives in Elsinore, Sevier County. "He was really quite the welder and on his way up the ladder."

Talovic took all that away Monday night when he opened fire on the fun-loving Frantz and others in the greeting card shop Cabin Fever. Teresa Ellis, who accompanied Frantz with her own recent good fortune at work, also was fatally shot.

"He's just a good spirit," said his aunt, Julie Lunt. "Sometimes they take them a little early."

Lunt described her nephew as a happy person whose smile lit up a room. He loved outdoor activities like camping, snowboarding, skateboarding and water skiing. And especially liked doing them with his older brother, Brandon. "You never saw him sad, even if he had a bad day," she said.

But the biggest joy in Frantz's life was his 3-year-old daughter Dejah.

"They were like stuck at the hip. He wouldn't be out of town if he had the weekend with his daughter," Lunt said.

Everyone associated with Frantz called him a great dad who doted on his daughter. "She lives with her mother, but he was a very good father to that child," Dan Frantz said.

"He had a great smile, and she was just like him," said Dan Seglich, an uncle. "He did all kinds of things with her."
