Several showed up at the Harsha Behavioral Center in Terre Haute. That's where Angel Vargas, 23, worked.
They lined up silently, paying tribute to Vargas. Friends, family, and others who's lives he touched were there.
Folks who remember Vargas have called his death a tragedy.
They described Vargas as a caring person who wanted to help those around him. His co-workers are saying they feel like they've lost a member of their family.
"His place can never be filled here. We all depended on him. He played ball with the kids. Walked patients, geriatric patients up and down the hall. Not for the money, but because he wanted to be here to make a difference," Dawn Fritschle said.
