On this day, 25 years agoβ¦
2,977 people went to sleep on September 10, 2001, expecting nothing more than an ordinary tomorrow.
246 passengers and crew prepared for their morning flights.
2,606 people went to work, expecting to come home.
343 firefighters prepared for their morning shift.
60 police officers prepared for their morning patrol.
8 paramedics prepared to begin another day of saving lives.
None of them knew that their livesβand the lives of countless othersβwould change forever before 10:00 a.m. on September 11, 2001.
In one single moment, life was never the same.
So tonight, as you breathe, as you live, and as you prepare for another day tomorrow, hold your loved ones a little tighter. Kiss them. Hug them. Snuggle a little closer. Tell them you love them.
Because tomorrow is never promised.
Never take a single breath, a single moment, or a single person you love for granted.
We remember the lives lost.
We honor the heroes.
We will never forget.
September 11, 2001 β Forever in our hearts.
