TWA Flight 800 victims remembered
MONTOURSVILLE, Pa. (AP) - Relatives of the 21 people from Montoursville who were killed ten years ago Monday in the explosion of T-W-A Flight 800 lit candles in their memory last night. All 230 aboard were killed, including 16 Montoursville Area High School French Club students and five adult chaperones on a trip to Paris. Many attendees exchanged hugs as they entered a memorial garden next to the school. The victims' names are etched in stone below a statue of an angel that is the centerpiece of the small park. John Dorin, mayor of Montoursville for 24 years, says families of victims wanted to keep the service low key.
