A wreath at the former Lorraine Motel in Memphis marked the spot where the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. fell after he was fatally shot. King, 39, was shot to death on the balcony outside his room by James Earl Ray on April 4, 1968. The former motel is now part of the National Civil Rights Museum.
