More from Dayton

This weekend a family drove all the way from Pittsburgh to visit the memorial. Their nephew had been killed in Iraq and they were not able to attend the funeral. They came to honor him and gain some closure on his death.

Four widows of the September 11th tragedy visited the exhibit on Friday, to pay their respects to more victims.

Saturday night they held an all-night candlelight vigil. Over 100 tea lights were spread throughout the boots. A cello played in the background.
