Future Generations Need to Know What Happened

Dear Editor: I’m greatly troubled by the belief of some who think we must move on, that there is too much talk of 9/11 many years later.

We have lost thousands of good people including 343 Firefighters who gave their lives. Not to mention the first responders who have died or are sick from the effects of the attacks and those who will suffer and die in the future. A husband lost his wife, a father lost his son, a mother lost her daughter and friends lost friends. How does one forget?

Future generations need to know what happened on that day of evil, for when we disregard history, we are doomed to repeat it. May God bless America on another anniversary of 9/11 and mourn all the good people who have died and taken from our midst.

Let’s keep the memory alive all year long so we don’t forget their sacrifice. Remember: Evil thrives when good people do nothing!
