As one travels throughout American communities, we are reminded of the tragic loss of life on 9/11 through plaques, monuments, and memorials.
These tributes are set in bronze, marble, and stone throughout our train stations, shopping malls, workplaces, and community centers.
They are sacramental reminders of lives gone too soon, whose memories must be eternally engraved into our hearts and souls.
America will perpetually honor those who perished on 9/11, and we must be passionately dedicated to transforming our nation, as a fitting tribute to their memory.
