BALTIMORE - Crews continue the complicated and meticulous operation of removing the steel and concrete from the fallen Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore. 

Cranes periodically swung into place on Easter Sunday and workers measured and cut the steel to prepare to lift sections of twisted steel. 

Church services and masses were held across Baltimore. Rev. Ako Walker at Sacred Heart of Jesus urged building bridges in the community and better treatment of migrant workers. 

This includes the six construction crew workers who were filling potholes and were presumed dead after the collapse. 

Two of the crew survived.
