Cedar City • Heather and Albert Alvarado were like two peas in a pod. They were a beautiful couple together.

That’s how two Cedar City firefighters remembered them Wednesday. Heather died of wounds suffered in the Sunday night Las Vegas massacre. Her husband Albert was a fellow firefighter.

She had gone to the Route 91 Harvest Festival with a group of women, including her 14-year-old daughter, who was not shot.

Firefighter James Wood has known the couple for 10 years. Heather and Alberto were an important part of the family of firefighters in this Southern Utah town, he explained.
