Today, we pause to honor the lives lost and the countless heroes who answered the call on September 11, 2001.

We remember the courage of first responders, firefighters, police officers, EMTs, paramedics, and everyday people who ran toward danger to help others. Their sacrifice and bravery continue to inspire us every day.

May we never forget.
