Forty-nine people were killed and another 53 were wounded in Sunday's attack, the most deadly shooting massacre in modern U.S. history.
On Monday night, thousands of Philadelphians converged on City Hall for a memorial to honor the victims and denounce violent acts of hatred.
An FBI investigation into the shooter remains ongoing.
