The grandfather of an Orlando girl who disappeared in June says a ceremony held for missing children at Florida's Capitol was "gut-wrenching."

George and Cindy Anthony joined 13 other families and Gov. Charlie Crist at the annual Missing Children's Day commemoration Monday. Cindy Anthony said the other families in attendance offered comfort and inspiration.

The couple's granddaughter, Caylee Anthony, has not been seen since June. Their daughter, who is Caylee's mother, has been charged with killing the girl. Casey Anthony has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder.
