We Remember
By David Greene
Nearly 100 turned out for a somber ceremony honoring the victims and heroes of the September 11th attacks, on Monday, September 11, the sixteenth anniversary of the terror attack. Nearly 150 individuals who were either born and raised or lived in the Bronx and were killed in the attacks on the World Trade Center were remembered in Jacobi Hospital’s 9/11 Memorial Garden, on the grounds of the Pelham Parkway hospital. Several speakers recalled that warm Tuesday, before laying white roses at two markers dedicated to those lost.
