September 11

Take a moment today, please, to remember those who died in the attacks on our country on September 11, 2001, and those who have died in other attacks at home and abroad in the years since.

Remember also their families and friends left behind.

And take a moment, please, to be grateful for the men and women who are willing to sacrifice their lives to protect and defend this nation: our armed forces, our police officers, our firefighters and first responders.

God bless America.
