Hard to believe it has been sixteen years since those devastating
attacks at the World Trade Center. So many innocent lives lost,
all for an ideology. Thousands of lives were lost that day,
and thousands of other lives changed forever. Families of
lost office workers, police, firemen, rescue workers. And
more continue to die yearly from the medical after-effects of
working around the clean up at ground zero.
I remember that month well, when Sheriff Randy Belmont of
the Allegany Co. Sheriffs office led a detail of six from our
department to do security and recovery work. The clock continues
to move on.... like it does in all events, good and bad.
But we must not forget those innocent ones that lost their lives
that day....those that had children who are now adults...and they
are remembering parents taken from them prematurely.
So let's take a moment this week, just to sit and reflect on that
day.... and maybe pray for better days and events to come to
all of our futures....it will be time well spent.
