Remembering 9/11

Today is the anniversary of 9/11 and so I talked a little to Faith about it. I remember all to well being called to our station and just waiting to be deployed, wanting to go to NY to help..We did eventually a few days later but it was only to bandage steel workers cutting through the rubble and to hand out supplies..Faith and I were lucky to be in NY on the 5th anniversary. I can't describe the feeling of the city that weekend..American flags were hung everywhere, Saks 5th Avenue drapped their famous window displays in black in memory of all who perished that day. The hair on the back of my neck stood up all weekend!


So today I remember all of my fellow EMS, Fire and Police who died protecting and serving their beloved city and all who died that fateful day.. I pray that God comforts all who mourn the loss of their loved ones..

"Those who cannot remember the past are doomed to repeat it!" ~ unknown

This is one of my favorite quotes..My American History teacher, Mrs. Bell had this hanging on the wall..
