Family members of Marathon bombings victim Krystle Campbell spoke with President Barack Obama on Thursday before the president spoke at an interfaith service in the South End, the Boston Herald reports.
Campbell's grandmother Lillian told the Herald that Campbell's parents Bill and Patty, and her brother Billy, met the president before he addressed the city during the service at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross.
Lillian, a Somerville resident, said that the support from the community and Medford in particular has been "amazing," adding that two police officers came by the home to say they are at her service for whatever she needs, according to the Herald.
