9/11 A Day to NEVER FORGET

Joan Cox, Retired Broker/Owner good morning, Joan... sadly that "coming together" in the days after 9/11 has gone away in our society. People do forget, even if I, for one, will never forget.

I remember my ex-wife was 8 months pregnant. She had a cousin who worked in the towers. We did not find out for a couple of weeks that he did not make it  :(

Awful.

Thanks for sharing Joan!!!

September 11 is a day we will never forget.   We remember where we were and what we were doing. We remember the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the incredible courage of the first responders who ran toward danger while others were running away.

Good Morning Joan Cox, Retired Broker/Owner 

The bonding that took place during and afterwards is something that should continue. But humans do have a tendency not to forget, but to become complacent. 

Good morning Joan Cox, Retired Broker/Owner ,

The terrorist attack on 9/11 will forever be ingrained in my mind. It was first time I understand the Death to America chants. They really hate who we are, what we stand for, our entrepreneurial spirit and with no doubt in my mind want to rid the earth of us.

Joan Cox, Retired Broker/Owner I will never forget that day where I was - what I was doing or who I was speaking with when the planes crashed into the Twin Towers 

A heartfelt reminder of a day that changed so many lives forever. We remember those who were lost, honor the courage of the first responders, and hold onto the spirit of unity and kindness that followed.

Hi Joan- I'm curious if people you meet in Portugal know about September 11 and its significane to us. 

Thanks for sharing your insight from Portugal Joan. I'll never forget that people from 77 different countries died on 9/11, and many more died of chronic conditions afterwards, some continue to suffer 25 years later. The ripple effect of widows, orphans and families affected is widespread and heartbreaking. It's no wonder there are memorials all over the globe to remember this day.    

Take care,

Grace

Oh, what a beautiful post, Joan. Like you, I'll never forget. I remember exactly where I was and who I was with when both planes hit the WTCs. Friends and family lost loved ones and that day not only changed their lives but, it changed all of our lives forever. 💔
