September 11, America honors Patriot Day, those who were lost, and their families.

Today, Americans remember September 11 by lowering American Flags to half-staff in honor of Patriot Day and the victims. Our thoughts and prayers go out to those who lost their lives and to their family members. Let us always remember the spirit of September 11 which was ignited by the courageous fire fighters and the first respondents who charged into the World Trade Towers sacrificing their lives trying to save others! Let us also honor the men and women in uniform who are defending freedom in a chaotic world where thousands of people are dying and millions are living in fear of terrorists killing in the name of religion! Today, we honor Patriot Day as proud Americans of a resilient nation and an icon of liberty, justice, courage, compassion, sacrifice, kindness, and resolve! God Bless America.
