Law enforcement officers and firefighters gathered Sunday at Grace Church in Eden Prairie to remember, grieve and pay respects to those who lost their lives or loved ones in the 9/11 attacks.

Several hundred people attended and viewed photographs and other items from the deadliest terrorist attack on American soil. Gov. Mark Dayton and U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar (DFL-MN) addressed the crowd, reminding people of the strength, courage and camaraderie it took for the country to find its way during those difficult times.
