I have to admit, knowing the cover subject this month, I had a really difficult time knowing what to write about. We all have an individual story about where we were 20 years ago, and what we were doing. I was waiting for a law school class to begin when in the lunch area we saw breaking news on the TV. We spent most of the day glued to the TV, but frankly, no one really cares what I was doing.
What is important was the work of the first responders that both gave their lives that day, that died afterward from the horrible aftereffects, and those that saved lives. In this month’s issue, we talk to two first responders who have spent their lives doing their part to make our community a better place. When you see a first responder, don’ forget to thank them for their service, and when you think about that fateful day 20 years ago, don’t forget to remember those who gave everything for their community.Â
