Day of Remembrance


9/11 will forever remain as a day of remembrance in honor of the thousands of souls lost in the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack. For my family, Sept 11 was already a day of remembrance as it marks the day we buried my Mom at the end of her valiant battle against ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease). She may have 'had" ALS--but ALS never had her. She was joyous and positive until the very end. She may be gone, but will never be forgotten.

To learn more about this insidious disease, or join the fight to eradicate it forever visit the ALS Association Web site alsa.org
