Glen Rock Remembers September 11, 2001

From the inspiring service at West Side Presbyterian Church, I drove a few miles south into Glen Rock to photograph their service, held at the 9/11 Memorial at Veterans Park.  The leaders of the community gathered with the residents to honor and remember the 11 residents lost that day.
This stunning memorial features steel beams from the towers and each of the 11 residents' names engraved in a bench nearby.
The park was filled to capacity.  Boy Scouts handed out programs to each resident as they arrived.
This retired soldier with two tours in Iraq is greeted by residents.
Musician prepared a song especially for the event.
