Flowers, notes and children's drawings filled two reflecting pools at the base of Ground Zero in New York, as thousands of people marked the second anniversary of the September 11 attacks that killed 3,016 people at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a Pennsylvania field. A children's choir sang the "The Star-Spangled Banner" and bagpipers played "Amazing Grace" as an honor guard unfurled the torn American flag that was raised above the rubble of the Trade Center towers after the attacks. The mourners paused for a moment of silence at 8:46 EDT, when American Airlines Flight 11 hit the North Tower of the World Trade Center. Afterward, about 200 children and young adults began reading the names of the 2,792 victims of the World Trade Center attacks in alphabetical order. Each had a relative who died in the attack and many offered tributes and declarations of love when they read their names. "I love you daddy, I miss you a lot," said Christina Maria Aceto after reading the name of her father, Richard Anthony Aceto. As the names were read, family members streamed down the ramp to the lowest level of the site.... (CNN) |
