Dorene Johnston Anderson was 49 and a stay-at-home wife and mother from Anchorage, Alaska. She and her husband John were in Las Vegas with their daughters Stefanie and Jessika to attend the Route 91 Harvest country music festival. Dorene volunteered with the Girl Scouts and served as treasurer for the Alaska Aces hockey team’s fan club.

On the night of October 1, 2017, a gunman opened fire on the festival crowd from a Mandalay Bay Hotel suite. Dorene was fatally wounded and counted among the 58 people killed in the attack. Investigators concluded the shooter acted alone and died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound; no other suspects were identified and no motive was established.

If anyone knew Dorene or was at the festival that night and can share memories or information, please contribute what you know.
