Today I rise to remember the life of Calla Medig. Going to the Route 91 festival in Las Vegas had become an annual tradition for Calla. She would always take time off from her job as a waitress in Edmonton, Canada, so she could travel to Las Vegas just for the festival. Calla was a hard worker and was about to become the newest manager at her restaurant. She was a mature, grounded, and lighthearted person. Calla will be remembered for being kind and warmhearted and for being someone who would always greet you with a beaming smile. I extend my condolences to Calla Medig's family and friends. Please know that the city of Las Vegas, the State of Nevada, and the whole country grieve with you. ____________________
