I remember feeling as if I was in a daze as I watched from my office window the effects of the first planes impact on the twin towers. Nothing could have prepared me or anyone of us for what we were to experience in the days following such a harrowing event. Directely after September 11, 2001, my sister and I had to fly to South Carolina due to the death of my brother. It took all of the courage we could gather to board that flight and return at a later date. The one thing that has helped us through this is the power of prayer. Those who lost their lives will always be remembered by the ones left behind. We will carry the spirit of their lives with us forever.
