How do YOU pray for the victims?

There is so much senseless violence in the world... like the deaths of 14 people yesterday in Binghamton, NY by an angry gunman. I appreciate the role of free will in his actions and I appreciate the comfort in God's presence for the families left behind.
I appreciate that different people will pray differently in this matter or when the tradgedy strikes closer to your home. How do YOU pray for the victims, the ones they leave behind and for the community that grieves?

I put them in my prayer intentions before I pray my daily Rosary, then I quietly offer a Mass for them whenever I'm in church.

Thank you, coder, that is beautiful. I grew up a Catholic and learned the beauty of praying the Rosary, still have my late grandmother's beads for use when I am really moved to it. Thank you.

As christians we need to pray for the victims, thier friends and families and for the family of the murderer. as well as the community as a whole.
