John Hilgert, of Hunters Creek Village, was identified Saturday by officials at Memorial High School, where he was a freshman, as one of the concert fatalities.

Hilgert attended the concert with his longtime friend Robby Hendrix, 15.

Henrdix’s mother, Tracy Faulkner, bought her son’s card for his birthday and “ultimately regrets the decision.”

“Everything about that night was a tragedy,” Faulkner told the BBC Houston Chronicle. “They were both in the same place at the same time and one came home and one we will never see.”

She said Hilgret and Hendrix had known each other for years and played football together.

“John was a good student and athlete and so polite. He was the sweetest and smartest young man,” she said.

Brianna Rodriguez was a dancer and junior in high school. Her family confirmed that she was one of the deceased victims.

A GoFundMe account set up by her family described her as a “beautiful, vibrant 16-year-old.”

‘Dancing was her passion and now she dances her way to the pearly gates of heaven.’

Jacob Jurinek, 20

Jacob Jurinek was attending the concert with his best friend Franco Patino when both were trampled to death. The couple grew up in the same town of Naperville, Illinois.

A friend named Ana Lissa Marie was distraught over the death of Jurinek, who was studying art and media at Southern Illinois University and had traveled to Houston with Patino to celebrate Jurinek’s birthday.

“I lost all my respect for Travis Scott,” she tweeted.

‘What happened was absolutely disgusting. RIP to everyone who lost their life. To Jacob Jurinek: You will be missed, son. thanks for all the laughs.

“My condolences go out to all the families who have lost lives.”

The University of Dayton confirmed to DailyMail.com that student Franco Patino of Naperville, Illinois, attended the concert in Houston.

The Mechanical Engineering major was involved in several extracurricular activities on campus and most recently worked in a co-op program in Mason, Ohio.

University President Eric F Spina extended his condolences and prayers to Patino’s loved ones and the campus community.

Patino’s fraternity, Alpha Psi Lambda, also offered condolences to his friends and family.

“It is with heavy hearts that Alpha Psi Lambda National, Inc shares that our brother, Franco “Cuauhocelotl” Patino, has been transferred to Omega Chapter,” the organization wrote on Facebook.

“We extend our condolences to his family, friends, Alpha Nu Chapter and all who share in this loss. May his memory be eternal.”

The college senior joined the University of Dayton chapter of the fraternity a year earlier.

“They need to change things at these types of events,” he said.

‘Today it was me. I lost my son. It could have been you,” Acosta said.

“When you send your kid out to have fun because someone else doesn’t give him the right to do so… I don’t know if I can explain it. The right security.

‘Because it’s not the first time he’s participated in big events, right?

“You can go to Disneyland and have fun. You can go to a baseball game and have fun. Because they have the right security, the right people, some people to assist the injured.

‘It is hard to explain.’

Rodolfo “Rudy” Peña, 23

Peña, from Laredo, Texas, died of cardiac arrest after being injured on the show.

He was a medical assistant and criminal justice major with aspirations of becoming a model and dreamed of one day becoming a U.S. Border Patrol agent.

“What happened last weekend is a direct consequence of what happens when the pursuit of financial gain and fame takes precedence over protecting the lives of innocents,” law firm Almaraz, which is representing the Peñas, said in a statement.

“It’s a testament to the current state of live events and the greed that is rampant in this industry.

‘No one should feel unsafe enjoying something they love, and unfortunately this is exactly what happened.

“We pledge that we will work diligently and responsibly to bring justice for the Peña family and for all those affected, and we will not rest until these voices are heard loud and clear.

“We will hold the responsible parties accountable and fight to ensure that something positive comes out of this unmitigated disaster. Something has to change. Something will change.’

Madison Dubiski, 23

Madison Dubiski of Cypress, Texas, was identified as one of the victims.

The former Ole Miss student was torn away from her brother Ty, who tried to get her to safety, during the wave and disappeared into the crowd.

Dubiski attended the University of Mississippi from 2016 to 2017 and worked in advertising and marketing. She attended Cy-Fair High School, where she was a Varsity Cheerleader and a member of the National Charity League, a service organization for mothers and their daughters in middle and high school.

Friends said her mother Michelle was her best friend and she was very close to Ty, who graduated from Cy-Fair in 2019.

Danish Baig, 27

Basil Mirza Baig announced on Facebook on Saturday that his brother, Danish Baig, also died at Astroworld.

“My brother was killed in this horrible event that was mismanaged and overseen by such horrible people,” Baig wrote.

‘People were trampled, walked and stomped on. My brother tried to save my sister-in-law from these terrible acts done to her while he was losing his life.”

Baig described Danish as a beautiful soul who put everyone before himself.

‘Last night he showed his courage to save my sister-in-law from the terrible things that were done. I am at a loss for words and am truly traumatized by this event,” he added.

‘I was there and couldn’t save my brother. People were pushing and shoving and not caring about anyone’s life.”

Baig also accused the rapper of provoking the chaos by “calling people to the stage to jump into the crowd” and “not stopping the show.”

“This is not the end,” Baig warned. “My family and I will do everything we can to ensure he is brought to justice.”

Shahani, a Texas A&M senior, was seriously injured at Astroworld and was on a ventilator at Houston Methodist Hospital, where she was taken after the concert.

She was declared brain dead and was taken off life support shortly afterwards. She was the ninth person to die from the influx of crowds.

It was the first festival Shahani had ever attended, her family said.

Her family’s attorney, James Lassitier, said, “Bharti was a shining star in the community.”

“She was a sister, a daughter, a high-achieving student about to graduate from Texas A&M University with high, high grades.”

Ezra Blount, 9

Blount was the tenth – and youngest – person to die from injuries sustained during the Astroworld Festival.

He had been trampled during the concert, put into a medically induced coma and required life support for a week before succumbing to his injuries.

The young boy had spent the concert sitting on the shoulders of his father, Treston Blount.

Treston passed out from lack of oxygen and when we regained consciousness he couldn’t find his son.

By the time the father-son pair were reunited, Blount was suffering from swelling in his brain and “trauma in almost all organs.”
