In all of the horror that we witnessed on September 11, 2001, the amazing thing we also saw was the incredible generosity, bravery, selflessness, and compassion of people from all over the country, who came together to help one another, the survivors, the victims’ families, and their communities.

I hope everyone is having a great holiday with family and friends. It’s an awesome time of year – the kickoff to summer, with its parties, sunshine, and time with family.But, it’s also good to take time from the BBQs, family gatherings, vacations, and shopping on Memorial Day and remember what the holiday was originally […]
