A huge crowd of friends, relatives and supporters gathered Wednesday to honour Addison Hall, the six-year-old girl who died after a car crashed into a London big-box store last Friday, also badly injuring the girl’s sister and pregnant mother. Dan Brown explored what drew people to the park.

“I’m here because I’ve known the Bozek family all my life. I knew Addison. They need arms around them.”

— Maureen Spencer-Golovchenko, a family friend

“I have a six-year-old daughter of my own. The thought of not having her is heart-wrenching. We’re here to support (Addison’s) life.”

— London mother Madison Meiller

“We know (Addison’s) grandfather. I know the son, too. I was feeling terrible the last few days.”

— Ralph Luciani, one of more than 35 bikers who showed up to support Addison’s family.

“When the tragic accident happened, I wanted to do something for the family. I think the whole community was shook up.”

— Tracy Vanderwerf, vigil, co-organizer

“Just to support the family. It’s so touching when you have your own children.”

— London mother Marta Viglianti

“We are related to the grandfather of the children. Not only that, but as a community we need to rally around. It’s just hard to put yourself in the family’s shoes.”

—​ Claudette Primeau, who helped hand out candles
