Remembering 911

Today right now marks 7 years since our country was attacked by terrorists. As we know so many innocent lives were lost. Many hero's were born that day too.

Sometime throughout the day....please take a moment and say a prayer for all those who were lost and for the brave hero's who not only survived, but have managed to somehow put their lives back together.

It will be an ugly day in our history that will live forever and all I can say is God bless America and I am proud to be an American!

 

       

I'm at a loss for words on this subject Janine, but I just want to at least say that, that day will never be forgotten and those families who were left behind, I still pray that some of their sadness has been lifted in order to remember those that once brought joy to their lives.

Goodmorning Janine and Cali Crew.

Today will never be forgotten in the hearts of American's.  Each of us can share exactly where we were when this tragedy happened.    America came together that day, on the streets, at the workplace, in churches, malls, fast food restraunts, everywhere!.  We shall always stand strong and proud together, because we are Americans!  God Bless America!

Thank you Janine for this post

Today will be remembered forever.  So many innocent people tragically lost their lives.  They will be on my mind throughout the day.

On the brighter side.  Today my husband will join 3,000 people and will be swarn in as a US citizen!  Altogether Los Angeles is swearing in 18,000 people in 3 ceremonies.  So with the bad, comes some good.

God Bless America

Janine,

No one will ever forget one of the worst day in America’s history. I pray everyday for our troops that have protected us from any other attaches on American soil.   God Bless America and I am also PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN!!!!!!!!!   Michele

I cant believe its been seven years...it seems just like yesterday.  I am very proud as well to be American!

Such a horrible day in American history.  I had 2 cousin who worked in the trade center and one that had taken the day off from the New York Stock exchange.  I also had a cousin who was a firefighter from Station 250 in Brooklyn and another who is now a detective with NYPD.  My one cousin has just left the World Trade Center, he worked graves and my other one worked on the 5th floor.  When the plane hit the first tower, they weren't even aware that something had happened.  My cousin who worked on Wall Street, called and told him to get out, just run out and get home, and he obeyed.  I am so thankful for that.  As for my cousin Lawrence that was a firefigther, they lost many from his fire house,  911 caused my cousin to also quit the fire service.  My other cousin became a detective and is still with the NYPD.  For days we did not know that fate of Lawrence or my other cousin with NYPD, they met on scene at the trade center a day later and neither one had called home.  Finally a call was made to one family member then we were all relieved that they were both ok.  That day I lost 343 brothers in service.  Heros that ran in as other ran out.  Even tho that is what they were trained to do, the impact of the World Trade center effected every firefighter in this county.  Today San Bernardino County Fire read off the names of all the people lost that day.  It was an hour tribute throughout our county.  I am so proud of the years that Doug has been with the fire service.  He no longer has to be the person to run into a burning building, but the 25 years that he did, there was never a day I didn't worry.  He still serves the public in the fire service, but no longer doing the most dangerous part of the job.

Today is a day that will never be forgotten.  As we fly our flags proudly today and remember those who gave so much, gave the ultimate as we face the evil that exists in the world.  God Bless those that were lost, the families, and God Bless the heros that are now fighting overseas to protect our freedom here. 

My thought and prayers are sad today in rememberance of all of those effected by this day

Diane
