Today, on the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001, we pause to honor the nearly 3,000 lives lost, the heroes who ran toward danger, and the families whose lives were forever changed.
We remember the courage, sacrifice, and unity that emerged from one of our nation’s darkest days. May we never forget those we lost—and may we continue to honor their memory through compassion, service, and strength.
From all of us at The Downs at Albuquerque and First Turn Lounge, we remember.
