Wilson Cruz mourns the loss of relative Brenda McCool in mass shooting at Pulse nightclub in Orlando

Our hearts go out to Wilson Cruz. His mother’s step-sister is among the 50 people murdered last night at Pulse nightclub. He posted this on social media: This was the last time I saw Brenda McCool. She was with us when our grandfather passed this passed fall. She was a fighter. A cancer survivor. A stellar mother. A proud and fierce advocate for her LGBT family. She spoke passionately about how much she loved her children. She was hilarious and loving and tore up the dance floor when salsa or anything was playing. I can’t believe she’s gone. I mourn with her kids and my entire family. The violence and hate has to end. The guns have to fucking GO! Our hearts are BROKEN! #Pulse #orlando — with Joshua Cruz.
