Loved ones are planning to say goodbye Saturday to two victims of the shooting spree at a Colorado movie theater - an Ohio man who died shielding his girlfriend from gunfire and a young Texas woman killed less than two months after surviving a shooting at a Toronto mall.

Matt McQuinn's funeral will be held in his western Ohio hometown of Springfield, while Jessica Ghawi's funeral is in her hometown of San Antonio. Both are open to the public.

The first funeral of a shooting victim was that of 51-year old Gordon Cowden in Denver on Wednesday. Cowden had taken his teenage children to the movie and was remembered as "a true Texas gentleman."

Other victims' funerals were held Thursday and Friday, and more are scheduled for next week.
