The wife of Sgt. Dmytro Kabakov, who was 58, grieves beside her husband's casket -- one of three laid side by side during a funeral at the Saints Peter and Paul Garrison Church. The caskets were opened a short time later, and family members drew close to caress their loved ones one last time.

Air raid sirens sounded part way through the service, a reminder of the war, as if anyone needed it. The sirens were ignored and the service continued.
