Never forget today-
 
9/11, the day our innocents were murdered and our way of life changed
forever.

So many tragic stories, Hesh. :(

So many heroes that day that gave their lives to save others.

So many lives ruined. We had 2 young friends die, one was to be married the
the next weekend. Eight years later their parents are still in mourning.

My son-in-law,a 767 pilot took off from Kennedy non stop to LA. at 8:00 AM the same time the hijackers left,
there were rumors of 2 additional hijacked 767's were still in the air after the 4 had crashed. We didn't know he was safe
until 11:30 AM.

Ingrained in our minds forever.
