An outpouring of love and support continues for the families and friends of the two journalists killed on live television this week.

WDBJ reporter Alison Parker, 24, and her cameraman Adam Ward, 27, are being remembered by their community and people across the nation.

Parker and Ward were gunned down by former co-worker Vester Lee Flanagan, 41, formerly known as Bryce Williams, as they were doing a live broadcast for CBS affiliate WDBJ in Roanoke, Virginia.

Their families and friends say they are doing their best to stay strong after the tragedy.

Flanagan was fired from the station two years ago.

While there's still no official word on a motive, in a rambling suicide note faxed to ABC News, Flanagan claimed he was mistreated at work because he was black and gay.
