I remember the morning of September 11th nine years ago…stepping outside and looking up at the sky and thinking it was going to be a Top 10 Day. Summer was turning into Fall. The sky was the bluest of blue…no rain clouds in sight. The air was cool and crisp…the sun's rays were warm. At 8:45 am… Tranquility turned to Devastation. It was a day of contrasts.
Today marks the ninth anniversary of the September 11th attacks and we remember all who lost their lives that day. We remember the 2,974 innocent men, women, and children who were going about their daily lives that beautiful September morning…to have it all suddenly taken away.

We remember the heroes that sacrificed their lives to save others. We honor the firefighters, the police, and emergency workers who worked to save lives. We extend our thoughts and prayers to the families and friends of those who were lost that day.
However you decide to commemorate September 11th is your choice. Whether it's through a special ceremony, moment of silence, prayer, or flag flown…it’s your choice. We are fortunate to live in this great country where we have the freedom of personal choice. We honor those men and women in the Armed Forces who work to defend and protect our freedoms.
September 11th…Just remember….Never forget.
