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.
