I took these photos in July 2002 on a weekend visit to New York City. Across the street from the World Trade Center stood a small chapel. This chapel would become a make shift memorial for the victims of Sept. 11th. These photos capture the different memorabilia of family members, friends, and strangers from all over the United States and world that sent their thoughts and prayers to the site.I remember exactly where I was on that day. I'm sure most people of a certain age remember too. It's very similar to the generation that was around when John F. Kennedy was assassinated - they know where they were and what they were doing at the time he was killed.
It's a sad memory. A memory that will impact me for the rest of my life. A memory of a beautiful early September day when innocent people were killed for no reason. A day that will forever be etched in my heart and thoughts.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the families and friends of Sept 11th.
We will NEVER forget!
