To All,
I was thinking about putting together a collection of letters from 9/11 family members for 2011.
I wanted to know if any of you would be interested in contributing.
The idea is to write a letter today and reflect on anything you might want to say about the last 10 years.
These letters will become a permanent part of the Hearts and Hands 9/11 Memorial and will be displayed along with the photos in our Corridor of Memories.
Please let me know what you think.
Thank You
Dennis

Isn’t it amazing that they all support this but not one of them govt or private would help us display the United in Memory 9/11 Memorial Quilt at Ground Zero last year and aside from former Senator Clinton and the City Council we have gotten no support for the Hearts and Hands Memorial
