Thirteen years ago today our nation was shocked by the attacks on the World Trade Center. We remember those who lost their lives that day and thank the firefighters, policemen, EMT’s and other emergency personnel who put their safety and lives on the line to protect the rest of our community.

Thinking back to the days following the attack it was time of fear, but also of great strength and unity. As a nation and as a local community, we came together in support of our country and the ideals that make us all proud to call the United States our home.
