Never Forget - 09.11.2001On Tuesday morning of September 11, 2001, terrorists began their attack on America. They hijacked 4 passenger jets, crashing 2 of them into the Twin Towers at the World Trade Center, a 3rd plane crashed into the Pentagon and the 4th plane crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Almost 3,000 people lost their lives as a result of this terroristic act. Hunterdon County lost 16 citizens.

It is a day, none of us will ever forget and we continue to mourn with those who have suffered personal loss.
