‘Love and Mourning’ at Copley Marathon Memorial

Posted on May 16, 2013

Ed Starbuck of Hyannis discusses the Boston Marathon bombings makeshift memorial in Copley Square exactly one month after the bombings.

Crowds continued to gather at the makeshift memorial in Copley Square commemorating those impacted by the Boston Marathon bombings Wednesday, which marked one month since the attacks shook the city.

There was no special occasion, no moment silence as 2:50 p.m. came and went, which was the time on April 15 when two bombs exploded near the finish line, killing three and injurying 260 others.

Instead, those at the memorial shared their own moments of quiet reflection as the memorial continues to grow.

Ed Starbuck of Hyannis has been coming to the area nearly every day since shortly after the bombings. What started as a few flags he put down grew into the memorial which has been moved four times, most recently to its current locale.

“I would say it’s love and mourning,” Starbuck said of the continually-growing memorial. “People leave a little bit of grief here. And that’s why it’s important. It’s a place where people can come and after they look at Ground Zero, they can come here.”
