Editor's note: The time for the vigil was originally incorrect and has since been changed.
Since Michael Luce and Michael Petrucci Jr. died 20 years ago Dec. 7 in a car crash, their friends and family have gathered at the accident site on Northwestern Avenue to remember them.
The pair died in 1992 when a car with eight other friends crashed into a tree at the Philadelphia-Montgomery County border. Petrucci was 16, and Luce was 20.
