Communities that were sheltering in place in the aftermath of Maine's shootings are beginning to move forward, with kids returning to school and residents celebrating Halloween.

In this undated photo provided by Elizabeth Seal, American Sign Language interpreter Josh Seal poses with his wife, Elizabeth. Josh Seal was one of four deaf people killed in last week's mass shootings in Lewiston, Maine. But Josh Seal, who is deaf, couldn’t hear the gunfire — though some deaf survivors said they felt startling jolts, his wife said.

“I want the world to remember him and his passion, his love, his patience, his kindness, his motivation, his zeal for life, his ability to get things done and his humor,” Elizabeth “Liz” Seal, who is also deaf, told The Associated Press through an interpreter. The father of four children — Jayson, 12; Sephine, 9; Jarrod, 6; and Jaxton, 3 — kept the family on the go, Liz Seal said. It was rare that the family didn’t have something planned for weekends, like camping and snowmobiling. Josh Seal also found time for his own passions, including playing disc golf.

He had to learn the spelling of complicated medical terms. There was a sense of mutual respect between him and Dr. Nirav Shah, the former director of the Maine Center for Disease Control. He also signed for Democratic Gov. Janet Mills.
