Boston Marathon Memorial Speakers?

I was watching the memorial in Boston with President Obama. I was in an office waiting for my appointment and it was on TV. I saw several people spoke before Obama. Does anyone know where I can find the names of the people who spoke? I wanted to watch the whole thing but my name got called for my appointment. Thank you.

In addition to Obama, the story says Thomas Menino, Duval Patrick, and Cardinal Sean O'Malley spoke. There may have been more less-noted people... I only saw a small part of it myself.

Hope this helps a little.
