On Friday, a procession carrying his body drew thousands of Canadians to highway overpasses and Main Street in Hamilton. Mourners waved flags and sang the national anthem as his body travelled from Ottawa to Hamilton.
Memorials have sprung up in several places in Hamilton, the largest of which is a shrine outside of the Argylls' base, the Armoury on James Street North.
The NHL honoured the slain soldier with simultaneous tributes at three separate games in Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal. Canadian forces members, including several from Cirillo's Hamilton regiment, opened the ceremony. A moment of silence was observed before tens of thousands of fans in all three stadiums sang the national anthem.
Cirillo's family issued a statement Friday evening thanking Canadians for their support.
Gunman Michael Zehaf Bibeau was shot dead by Kevin Vickers, the sergeant-at-arms of the House of Commons, after he entered Centre Block through the front doors.
