PITTSBURGH — A solemn quiet fell over the corner of Shady and Wilkins avenues in Squirrel Hill on Thursday, four years since an antisemitic gunman opened fire on Saturday services at the Tree of Life synagogue.
"People are feeling it," said Maggie Feinstein, director of the 10.27 Healing Project. "It's surprising how much we all feel it in our bodies."
The massacre — the worst attack on Jewish people in the United States — killed 11 worshippers from the congregations of Tree of Life Or L'Simcha, Dor Hadash and New Light: Joyce Fienberg, Richard Gottfried, Rose Malinger, Jerry Rabinowitz, Cecil and David Rosenthal, Bernice and Sylvan Simon, Daniel Stein, Melvin Wax and Irving Younger.
