Family members of the nearly 3,000 people killed in the 9/11 terror attacks and the 1993 World Trade Center bombing gathered Tuesday morning for a somber memorial service.

The ceremony, held on the plaza of the National September 11 Memorial & Museum near One World Trade Center, included six moments of silence and a reading of the names of those who died.
