People make their way to a snow covered memorial in Newtown Connecticut. It's a town still blanketed in grief. On December 14th 26 people, including 20 children were gunned down at an elementary school. Some offer presents to children who will never know another Christmas. (SOUNDBITE) (English) JESUS CARRION, VISITOR FROM BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, SAYING : "We wanted to contribute and bring some teddy bears for the families, you know, of these kids and the teachers who are not here today because of some tragic moment, so we just wanted to come down and show support for the families - obviously that will be never be the same again, whose holidays will never be." The massacre shook the nation -- with shows of support coming in from all over the country -- in a somber display during the holiday season.
