David Williams was 29 when he was fatally shot in room 102 of the Tri-City Inn in Mesa, Arizona, on a Wednesday in March. The shooting was part of a larger spree that also wounded his mother, Lydia Nielson, who survived. Williams died at the scene from his gunshot wounds.

Friends and family held a candlelight vigil outside the hotel, leaving candles and flowers. His girlfriend, Veronica Ehrig, described frantic moments trying to give a location to a 911 dispatcher. Those who knew him remembered Williams as always smiling, happy, and passionate about skateboarding; his family faced the added burden of raising funds for his funeral. The man suspected of the shooting spree was apprehended, and friends and family said they felt some relief that the person allegedly responsible had been found.
