Some quotes from people in attendance:

From Andrei Cherny, former candidate for Arizona Treasurer and current candidate for chairman of Arizona Democratic Party: "Gabby represents the best of Arizona in every way. She is one of the brightest stars amidst our leaders and on Saturday, she and many others came face to face with the worst of our state"

"Gabby has the gift of being able to stay on point in debate," says Secretary of State Ken Bennett, who sat next to Giffords in the state Legislature. "She never got personal. She was a true joy to work with."

"I hope we can start the process of moving forward," says Rep. Chad Campbell, House minority leader.

House Speaker Kirk Adams says he was recently at a function with Giffords. "She's a woman of grace and incredibly kind," Adams said. "She's also very thoughtful."

Sheriff Clarence Dupnik on Judge Roll: "He was one of the finest human beings I ever met and the epitome of what judges ought to be," Dupnik said. "Every judge should take a look at him."
