September 11 2001 - Remember and Renew Resolve - Tributes And Services Hudson Valley NY

It is hard to believe that it has been eight years since the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, The Pentagon, and the attempt on the White House that ended in that field in Pennsylvania.  It is with deep sympathy for those who lost friends and relatives and with renewed resolve to be a strong nation that we honor this day. The suffering that began that day continue as many first responders and those who were on site for search and recovery deal with illnesses that they suffer as a result of the toxic wasteland they toiled in.  Our servicemen and women continue to fight and die for our freedom in lands far away.  We must never forget.
