We will Remember them

23 years ago many of us still remember how our lives changed forever. We lost our innocence, but we gained a strength we never knew we had. 

Some families who lost loved ones will never fully recover from the events of that tragic day.  

About 40% of victims from the World Trade Center have still not been identified. We pray they will one day, and their loved ones maybe will have some comfort finally.
