Liberal Member of Parliament Nathaniel Erskine-Smith for Beaches—East York confirmed that a resident of his riding had died in the shooting.
“She was smart, caring, funny, passionate, and she was out to make the world a better place,” he wrote on Twitter Monday night. “Reese will be sorely missed by so many.”
Mourners gathered at a vigil Monday night to remember her.
“She was always happy, she was always smiling, she was the prettiest girl you could ever meet and it’s just not fair that she died,” Desirae Shapiro, a childhood friend of Fallon’s, told Global News.

“She told me about how she was really happy to go to college and it’s just really sad, it shouldn’t have happened to her.”
The Toronto District School Board also remembered Fallon, a former student, in a statement provided to Global News.
“An engaging student, Reese Fallon graduated from Malvern CI just last month and was highly regarded by staff and loved by her friends,” director of education John Malloy said in a statement.
Malloy added that the high school will be open Tuesday and counselling will be provided to students. The flags at all TDSB schools will be lowered in Fallon’s memory.
Fallon was also remembered by her teachers. Anthony Parise, who taught her English in Grade 12, said she was a “magnanimous, benevolent kid.”
