NEVER FORGET 🇺🇸

Today, we pause to remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost during the terrorist attacks of September 11th, 2001 — and the countless families, first responders and communities forever changed by that day.

Here in Prineville, Mona Glade and her husband have continued an annual tradition of remembrance, helping ensure that even as the years pass, those lost are not forgotten.

This photo, taken by the Prineville Review yesterday, September 10th, captures something particularly meaningful. Glade is pictured alongside four young men visiting from Germany who stopped to pay their respects at the local 9/11 remembrance display.

The victims of September 11th were not only Americans. They came from 92 countries around the world, including 11 people from Germany.

Twenty-five years later, four young visitors from Germany standing at a memorial here in Prineville serve as a simple reminder that the loss of that day reached far beyond America's borders — and so does its remembrance.

Today, we remember the lives lost, the first responders who ran toward danger, the families who never saw their loved ones come home, and all those whose lives were forever changed.

We will never forget.
