By Howard Monroe, CBS Philadelphia May 11, 2021 The gun violence epidemic is not letting up across the country and hours after a group of moms mourned their losses in public, homicide detectives were on the move as more teens died from gunshot wounds in Philadelphia. "I will miss Mario forever, and I will always call his name and keep him alive," Cheryl Pedro, who lost her son to gun violence, said. "It doesn't get any easier really," Pedro said. "It's always there. There's always an ache in the heart that you just can't get rid of."
