It's been six years since the worst anti-Semitic attack in U.S. history claimed 11 people at a Squirrel Hill synagogue.
About 400 community members turned out Sunday for an evening ceremony honoring the victims of the Tree of Life mass shooting.
City councilperson Barb Warwick was there. She tells Michael Bartley on KDKA Radio it was a beautiful ceremony.
“The survivors and their families come back year after year and that 10/27 Healing Partnership come back year after year to make sure we are commemorating and remembering so that we can put an end to this kind of hate,” said Warwick.
During the ceremony, candles were lit for each of the 11 victims, and their names were read aloud.
