Re: Remembering 9-11-01
As the assistant fire chief for our local fire department, I spent 5 hours with a crew collecting money for hurricane relief at an intersection in our community. Over $13,000 was raised throughout the county by five departments. On Monday, a local nursing home sent food trays to our fire station as appreciation for what we do each day and in remeberance of 9/11. It brings me great pride and appreciation of this community, much like so many other communities around the nation when I see the support poured out to those in need by people who could probably use some help themselves. We are still one nation under God, in good times and bad.
