A sad anniversary

[camille1585]

It must have been horrible for you to see the smoke Sue and lose people you knew. What a horrible day that was, I hate thinking about it. I'm originally from Fairfield CT, 1h from NYC. Many neighbors and parents of kids I went to elementary school with worked in the towers. I heard from my best friend still living there that one of our neighbor died in the towers, leaving behind 4 young children and his wife.

I still remember where I was that day as well, I don't think I'll ever forget. I was in 8th period French class when a teacher suddenly came through the door and told us to turn on the TV. Being in an international school with a lot of americans and a previous bomb threat, the school was placed on lockdown and surrounded by police the rest of the school day.

What a sad day, I only hope we never have to live through anything like that ever again.

I consider myself and my family to be among the lucky ones. As hard as it was, it pales in comparison to what so many others suffered.
