Rain on April 5th did not diminish the numbers drawn to honor the fire's victims and to pay their respects to the 7 still-unidentified. The silent procession of 100,000 mourners marched past 300,000 others who bore witness to the sacrifices that had been made and confirmed their resolve to see justice served.
