Funerals were held today for four victims of the Newtown school shooting.

Services were also held for 6-year-old Olivia Rose Engel, who was remembered for her love of dancing, art and swimming.

The third student memorialized today was 6-year-old Dylan Hockley. Dylan was remembered at the Walnut Hill Church in Bethel for his smile and positive attitude.

The third of the adults killed in the shooting was also laid to rest. The Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem hosted friends and family of behavioral therapist Rachel Marie D'Avino. She was then buried in neighboring Watertown.
