Another said, “Been crying and getting really emotional every now and then, thinking about what a hero Charlie is to our generation. As a student, I can say he made such an impact on so many of us, not only by saving us, but also through everything he contributed in protecting this country and our generation. It’s just too painful to accept that he is no longer here. We will never forget you, Charlie, you will always hold a very special place in our hearts.” “The attendance is better than most of their sporting events,” wrote a user, while another said, “A meaningful gathering. Moments like these remind us of the weight of legacy”.
