Cypress Sun Posted September 12 Posted September 12 I've already raised a glass to Pete and all of the 2977 people who perished that day and to the folks that continue to die in the days after from exposure to toxic materials. Â We all lost one of our own on 9/11....whether we knew them or not. Â I saw an interview with the retired firefighter that is interviewed below. He was the only one who survived out of his rescue team of eleven souls. He went through the collapse of both towers and on top of that, his brother was a passenger of Flight 93.

WOLFY Posted September 12 Posted September 12 (edited) I was barely 2 years into my stint as a fireman in SF CA when these terror attacks hit our nation. Â May God keep their souls in peaceful slumber Edited September 12 by WOLFY 2 Quote
Caprock Kid Posted September 14 Posted September 14 Was on a tour in Ireland when the driver said he had a very special place he wanted to take us to. It is in the middle of nowhere where but now is forever embedded into my soul. Walked by every one of these trees and said a quiet thank you. https://remembrancegarden343.com 1 2 Quote
