Scenes from across Blaine today as we pause to remember the events of 25 years ago.

We remember the thousands who lost their lives on September 11, 2001. We honor their lives, hold their loved ones in our hearts, and remember the courage and sacrifice of the first responders and others who served that day.

Today, flags across Blaine serve as a reminder that we will never forget.
