On Tuesday night, 100 family members from around the country will gather in remembrance of the victims. They will meet at the Flight 3407 Memorial at the Clarence Library followed by a memorial service.
The walk at 9:50 p.m. will mark the time the Buffalo-bound commuter plane, operated by regional carrier Colgan Air, stalled and crashed after the pilots responded incorrectly to a stall warning.
Since then, the victims' relatives have made it their mission to improve aviation safety, including pushing Congress to pass new pilot training rules.
On Monday, the families laid a wreath at Forest Lawn Cemetery and placed 51 carnations on the crypt in memory of each person killed.
