Frank,

I was in NYC at the time and saw the second plane hit the tower ... I for one will never forget the sacrifice your brother and so many others made on that tragic morning.

May they all rest in peace and know that some of us will not forget. EVER!

It's both a curse and blessing that there are at least 710 movies with the towers shown in them. Just saw one last night.
Frank there isn't a time I see these now and don't think of your brother and his ultimate sacrifice. God bless him.

Link to the 710 movies. Little did those #*(@ think that we all be
able to curse their ideologies so often.

Frank,

You may have seen this but thought I would post it.




Scott,

I remember flying into LaGuardia soon after 9/11. Going up the Hudson and not seeing those twin Giants there. Felt as if I had lost my right arm. They were supposed to be there. I grew up in Brooklyn and remember those buildings going up. They were the butt of NY jokes back then but became such a symbol of the city. So recognizable, like two titans guarding the entrance to the harbor but also letting travelers know "Welcome to the Big Apple, we do big things here".

The first time I saw them they looked like this from the Empire State building in 1969. I'll never forget it because I did not know they existed
until I viewed them from there. What an impact it had on me.


The last time I saw them was a few months before 911

Then I took this one a few months after
