On this the 25th anniversary of 9/11, we pause to reflect on the horrible events of that fateful September day back in 2001 and the many innocent lives that were lost. We are reminded of the resilience of our great nation and of the ability of the American people to unite together in the face of tragedy. Today and always we will never forget…
