Today, we take pause to remember the events of 9/11 and the nearly 3000 Americans who perished on this day in 2001. We promise to never forget, and we pledge to make the world a better place in remembrance of those who lost their lives responding to the attacks that day. We usually have some sort of recognition ceremony or lunch planned for our local first responders, but due to concerns with the Corona Virus, we just couldn’t make that happen. We salute our local heroes for their daily commitment to our safety!
