Monuments of September 11 #WordlessWednesday

I have written a lot of 9/11 posts.  I know people who were personally affected (a man who lost his son and a man who lost his best friend) and had some indirect connections to others who died that sad, sad day.  

This year I'm keeping the post simple, in keeping with the Wordless Wednesday meme.

May those who perished, including those who died years later (and are still dying even today), forever rest in peace.  May their loved ones find healing. 

May we never forget. 

Taken September 11, 2016, at a cemetery in Putnam Valley, New York (Putnam County).  

The actual monument at the cemetery. Some 126 resident lives were lost, between Putnam County and its neighbor Westchester County.


One more monument, in Naples, New York, taken the fourth week of September, 2022.

Joining Sandee at Comedy Plus for her #WordlessWednesday on this sad 23rd anniversary.

  1. I will never forget seeing events unfolding that day. I could not believe my eyes as first one plane flew into a tower and then a second into the other. Terrible!

  3. I so remember that day. I was still working. I was in a daze most of the day. I will never forget.

  4. We can not forget this event. The consequences are still present and they will be.
    I really can't imagine the horror of those moments. But there is a fog over the subject, which is not fair for all people who died.
    God rest their souls.
