About two weeks earlier, a shooting at Breakers Pub left a woman dead and several other hurt.
Residents say this kind of violence simply does not happen in their community.
“Really it was just a whole community effort. Just coming together here to help promote healing for what has been facing Ellwood City,” said vigil organizers Ashley Fisher.
Along with songs and prayer, therapy dogs were also on hand to help those struggling.
