Today, on the 9/11 anniversary, we pause to remember and reflect. It has been 24 years since that day of immense tragedy that forever changed our nation. For those who were in New York City, Washington D.C., and Shanksville, Pennsylvania, the memories are etched into a collective consciousness. For those who have come of age since, it is a day learned through history books and family stories. Regardless of our proximity to the events, we are all connected by the profound grief and a shared resolve to never forget.

Remembering the Victims and Honoring the Heroes on the 24th 9/11 Anniversary

We honor the nearly 3,000 innocent lives lost on September 11, 2001. We remember the victims in the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and on Flight 93. They were fathers and mothers, sons and daughters, friends, and neighbors from every walk of life. Their absence is a wound that never truly heals for their families and loved ones.

And on this 9/11 anniversary, we also honor the heroes. The brave first responders—firefighters, police officers, and paramedics—who ran toward danger without hesitation. The passengers on Flight 93 who fought back. The countless volunteers and ordinary citizens who showed extraordinary courage and compassion in the face of chaos. Their selflessness and resilience stand as a testament to the best of humanity.

A Continuing Legacy: Supporting Those Still Suffering

The legacy of 9/11 extends far beyond that single day. Many survivors and first responders continue to suffer from physical and mental health issues, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It is a silent battle that is still being fought 24 years later.

For those struggling, resources are available. Seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
