TAPPER: Before we leave you today, we wanted to return to our top story and take a moment to remember and to honor the 26 innocent people killed in Sutherland Springs, Texas, whose names were just now beginning to learn. One of the first names released, the pastor's daughter, 14-year-old Annabelle Pomeroy. Her parents were out of town in Florida at the time. This morning, her mother spoke of how she's remembering her sweet Belle.</s>SHERRI POMEROY, VICTIM'S MOTHER: One thing that gives me a sliver of encouragement is the fact that Belle was surrounded yesterday by her church family that she loved fiercely and vice versa. Our church was not comprised of members or parishioners, we were a very close family.</s>TAPPER: 16-year-old Haley Krueger also died. Her mother told CNN that Haley was vibrant and loved life. She wanted to be a nurse helping babies in the intensive care unit. The Holcombe family lost eight members of their family across three generations. Bryan Holcombe was the visiting pastor at the church, Karla was his wife, the couple lived in a farm about 15 miles from the church. Their son Danny also died as well as Danny's daughter Noah, who was only 17 months old. Crystal Holcombe was 2 months pregnant. She's married to Bryan and Karla's son John. He survived the shooting. John was the step farther to three of five of Crystals five children who were also killed yesterday. That's it for THE LEAD, I'm Jake Tapper, I turn you over now to Wolf Blitzer. He's in "THE SITUATION ROOM." Thanks for watching. Stay safe.</s>WOLF BLITZER, CNN HOST: Happening now, breaking news, motive for massacre. The gunman who killed 26 people on a small Texas church had a history of domestic violence which led to his ouster from the U.S. Air Force.
