At 10 a.m. Wednesday, people were coming by at the rate of about 60 an hour to pen their thoughts in four condolence books laid out on four black covered tables, surrounding a table centerpiece of red, yellow, pink and white tulips, which Maggie Daley loved.

Standing out simply in comparison to the official elegance is a sparse single wreath of pine, draped over velvet crowd control ropes, reading: "In memory of beloved Maggie Daley, 2011."
