In honor of the 2,977 innocent lives lost that September day, I encourage everyone to come together and join either yours or a neighboring communities memorial ceremony.
Billerica - Ceremony at 8:30 am on the Billerica town common followed by a wreath laying at Jessica Sachs memorial garden located New Colony Baptist Church - 30 River St
Wilmington - Ceremony at 8:30am at the Wilmington High School followed by a wreath laying at the 9/11 Memorial
Tewksbury - Procession from the Tewksbury town common at 8:25am followed by a ceremony at 8:46am at the 9/11 Memorial
Burlington - Ceremony at 9am on the Burlington town common followed by a wreath laying
Let us also not forget all of the first responders who responded that day and the months after, who we have lost years later after complications from exposure to the toxins that blanketed the city and those now living today with cancer and other ailments due to that day.
May we not forget how we all came together as a nation, how our flags flew high, and how we were all on this together.
We should not forget how we were proud of our military for risking their lives to protect us and their country by going after those who were responsible for this deadly attack.
It may be 20 Years but "No Day Shall Erase You From The Memory Of Time" - Virgil
