"Any Nation that does not honor its heroes will not long endure" Abraham Lincoln

9/11 Responders Prayer
by widows: Greta Helmke &
Eileen Ryan

Our hands were small, but together we did great things with them. We prayed we'd survive our painful illnesses. Hoped we could always play with our children and held fast to our loved ones hands so we would not fall. When we could no longer stand and were so afraid to die our hearts were not heavy because you looked upon us as heroes. We were humble and brave and laid down our lives to protect you and our nation. Always remember our courage! Always remember us!

RESTLESS NIGHTS
-anonymous

With the thought of each tomorrow
Still lingering in their head,
They lay their thoughts down for the night
To seek rest for what lays ahead

The tangled steel—the iron cold beams
Still haunt them through the night
But they must rest their body
For to continue the valiant fight

They toss and turn and do not sleep
Because their brethren died young
They were stolen from the life they had
On the day of 911.

But, tomorrow is another day
And rest they must tonight
May God bless and watch them over
And tomorrow continue to do the right.

They represent all those that lost
The battle with their health
They did what they were trained to do
Without any thought of self.

This story does not end
With justice for the right
But, it instead goes on and on
And continues to be played each night

But someday this story will play a very different tune
And it will come not any time to those who need it soon
For justice is the right path for each and every one
It is time to know they need to honor---every American son!

OUR WALL NAME POLICY

The pure mission of the 911 Responders Remembered Park, Inc. Board is to build a park that will honor and recognize the heroes who have died, and continue to die since September 11th. The many monuments, memorials and other parks that recognize the heroes who died on September 11th have a clear mission as well. While we respect the rectitude of all who proudly ran toward the flames on September 11th, our unique and one-of-a-kind wall will only list the heroes we've described herein because we do believe they too need individual recognition.
