It's sad to think about. What a horrible day for all of America.😢

Thanks Chris for another perspective on this tragedy.

Thanks Chris.
This choked me up. I think that what Middletown built to honor their residents is absolutely incredible. I’m so proud of the people who came together and thought of and put forth this beautiful memorial. May every Soul lost that day and the Souls who still suffer heal and RIP.

Thanks Chis. Horrible memories even today. My sister in law worked for the World Bank in the twin towers. She was lucky to be at a meeting in Boston when it occurred. Most of her colleges died.

@100ford2003 ...yeah, I didn't want to write anything about this video - I figured most people won't even watch it, assuming it's only about cars (as the title suggests ). But of course, we know it about much more than that.
Like you, I was unable to get through it without crying - probably among the best public memorials .....not just in America, but in the world. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

@david-green Oh, how incredibly sad for her cohorts...and her. Angeles protected her and a handful of others with similar stories - like the man who was late for a 9:00am meeting in the North Tower on the 95th floor. Flight 11 struck @ 8:46 between the 93rd & 99th floors.

@bob-jackman You're welcome and precisely - "another perspective." Who in the hell is thinking about parked cars - owned by people who never returned.... 😔 😔 😔

cadiilaclloyd, FYI, there is also a 9/11 memorial dedicated to all the New Jersey 9/11 victims...I am going to work that memorial into my schedule when I am in the city next month.
