Tributes
8To the first responders who ran towards it while everyone else ran away: thank you.
So many lives, so much love, gone in a moment. We remember every one of them.
I was nearby when it happened. I still hear the sirens. Thinking of every family tonight.
No words are enough. Rest in peace to all who were lost, and strength to those left behind.
My cousin's neighbour was there. It's hard to describe how a whole community carries something like this.
I keep thinking about the families who got a phone call that day. Holding all of you in my thoughts.
Every name matters. Every one of them was somebody's whole world.
