The rows of faces looked on stoically, save for a head bowed here and there, as President Barack Obama led a memorial Tuesday for the 13 people killer in last week’s mass shooting. “For those families who have lost a loved one, no words can fill the void that has been left,” Obama told a crowd of 15,000. “But here is what you must also know: Your loved ones endure through the life of our nation. … Every evening that the sun sets on a tranquil town; every dawn that a flag is unfurled; every moment that an American enjoys life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. “That is their legacy.”
