Has anyone forgotten where they were and what they were doing 8 years ago today? Have you forgotten how you felt in the days, weeks, and months after? I haven't and never will. I personally knew 29 people murdered that day. Some were friends, some were coworkers, but all still hold a special place in my memory and in my heart. I can't stress enough how important it is to stay vigilant, especially when spotting, you guys are the best eyes and ears out there. If someone or something looks suspicious, speak up!!!!!

Tom Ashton, good guy I went to high school with. 9/11 was his second day on the job as an electrician's apprentice, and that morning they were sent to a job on the 95th floor of the North Tower.
Joe Graf***nino, brother-in-law of a colleague of mine, was one of the firefighters killed in the Deutsche Bank fire two years ago.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9
An old friend of mine from when I lived in Baldwin lost his father.

Firefighter Manny Mojica, Squad 18. My younger brothers best friend, they knew each other since grammar school. An all-around great guy.
Its very eerie if you remember the documentary about 9/11 the Naudet brothers filmed that day. While filming in the lobby of one of the towers we see Manny walking past with his fellow firefighters!!

My four cousins worked in the Towers but thankfully made it out. I don't know anyone personally died but I do recall the 8 cars that sat at the Oakdale Train station for two weeks. Later it was learned those were men and woman from Oakdale, my town who died in the attacks.
