As we prepare to Remember the 19th Anniversary of the ATTACK on AMERICA, I am reminded of the dedication, the sadness, and sorry of so many and how much our lives changed on that Terrible Day.
In reading the short story of Dan Potters (Johnny Gage), Glory Days page 24, reply # 478, Dan gives us just One Individuals idea of what it was like down there shortly after that plane hit the North Tower. Then knowing that your wife is inside that building, just hoping she is okay.
There are thousands of other stories that each individual who is alive today can testify to Americas Worst Day, September 11, 2001.
We remember the attack at the Pentagon. We remember the plane crashing in a field in Shanksville, Pa killing ALL of it's passengers.
We remember of the phone calls to loved ones saying good bye as they were about to die.
We remember the first victim of 9/11 being carried away. His name Father Mychel Judge, the FDNY Chaplin. These days NOT Forgotten, honored yearly in the Father Judge 9/11 Walk with Frank Meade (manhattan) and until his passing, the late NYPD Officer Steven McDonald.
We remember the missing and unaccounted for. The weeks and months of searching. The daily funerals.
We remember the National Prayer Service a few weeks later at Yankee Stadium while the search went on. Where we all joined hands and prayed together.
THANK YOU TO ALL who were there to help in some way. We hope this country will NEVER see another day like that.
We Will NEVER FORGET.
