A memorial service was held Sunday to honor the 9/11 terror attack victims from Huntington.
The service was held at Heckscher Park.
The names of residents who died that day and later of 9/11 related illnesses were read aloud.
Family members of victims, like Elizabeth Castellano of Huntington, say it's a good way for the community to come together during a somber time.
"It's very important. It's comforting to know that as a community, we rally around each other and try to be there and support each other in our losses," she says.
Castellano says her brother was working in the towers when the attack happened.
