[NJ.com] The shirts hung on crosses outside the cathedral bearing witness to gun violence.
Each shirt had a name. Baker. Townes. Brooks. Each one shot dead.
"It's so sad," said Connie Heginbotham as she walked through the area next to Trinity and St. Philip's Cathedral filled with names.
Nearly 200 shirts were hung as "Memorials to the Lost," part of the public vigil at the cathedral on Sunday, the eve of the third anniversary of the mass shooting in Newtown, Conn.
