LOS ANGELES—It was an emotional day in Southern California and around the nation today, with multiple ceremonies marking the 20th anniversary of the September 11th terrorist attacks.

Two moments of silence were observed at the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), where some passengers aboard three flights were headed at the time they crashed.
