Ranjeet Singh, 45, had worked at a local grocery store for 16 years, trying to earn money for his wife and children in India.
Sita Singh, 41, had recently moved to the United States to join his brother Ranjeet. They were both Sikh priests in Wisconsin. The rest of their family is in India.
Paramjit Kaur was 41 years old when she died at the temple and was the only woman killed in the attack.
Satwant Singh Kaleka, 65, was the president of the Oak Creek temple and died a hero after he tried to protect others from the gunman.
Prakash Singh, 39, was a priest who had recently come to the U.S. from India.
Suveg Singh Khattra, 84, was the eldest of the victims and spent most of his time at the temple.
Mourners and supporters of the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin attend a candle light vigil held at the Oak Creek Community Center on the National Night Out event in Oak Creek, Wisconsin.
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.
