Remembering 9/11

Twenty years ago, terrorists hijacked airplanes and carried out coordinated attacks on U.S. soil, killing nearly 3,000 people.

Heroic first responders rushed to save lives, and families were forever changed. Americans joined hands and hearts during one of the most difficult times in modern history.

On this solemn occasion, let us remember that tragic day and reflect on lessons of unity and hope that will carry us forward together.

Here is a roundup of local events to commemorate this anniversary.
