Today, we pause to honor and remember the 2,977 lives lost on September 11, 2001.
We remember the innocent lives taken too soon. We honor the extraordinary courage and sacrifice of the firefighters, law enforcement officers, EMS personnel, dispatchers, military members, and countless others who answered the call running toward unimaginable danger and carrying out one of the largest and most courageous rescue efforts in American history.
We also remember those who survived that day but later lost their lives or continue to suffer from illnesses connected to their service at Ground Zero.
Twenty-five years later, their courage, sacrifice, and legacy remain with us.
May we never forget the lives lost.
May we never forget those who answered the call. May we never forget.
September 11, 2001.
