As a 9/11 Survivor and 9/11 Responder I was privileged to participate in the May 30th Commemoration Honoring 9/11 Responders and Survivors
To mark the 20th anniversary, VOICES invited members of the 9/11 community to participate in a solemn candle lighting service honoring responders, survivors, and those who have died of 9/11-related illness.
9/11 Community Candle Lighting Ceremony
May 30th marks the 20th Anniversary of the end of the 9-month rescue and recovery effort at Ground Zero. On that day, thousands attended the solemn ceremony where firefighters, law enforcement, and elected officials stood at attention – as the last beam, draped in an American flag was ceremoniously carried up the ramp.
To mark this important milestone, we are honoring the 9/11 responders and survivors by sharing our Candle Lighting Ceremony and a discussion with special guests Alice Greenwald, Michael Arad, and John Feal, about the creation of the Memorial Glade.
