Today is the ten year anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks or "9/11" as people quickly began calling it-- equating the date to our emergency response three-digit code. The above commemorative plaque, at the base of a flagpole, is on site at the Hanes Lineberry Funeral Home. The funeral home is located on the corner of Vanstory and High Point Roads-- directly across the road from the Hebrew Cemetery. Hanes-Lineberry Funeral Home makes a real effort to bring dignity to the end of the lives of loved ones especially people who were public servants. Today, their website will link to videos related to 9/11.
Many Greensboro residents have direct ties to 9/11; one of the most direct ones was the loss of Sandra Bradshaw. There is a 9/11 plaque in Greensboro, dedicated to Sandra W. Bradshaw, a flight attendant from Greensboro who died on the United Airlines flight 93. Previously, we featured her memorial plaque here. May we all find time today to reflect on this tragic event and imagine what we can do to ensure something like 9/11 doesn't happen again-- anywhere in the world.
That's quite an important plaque as we remember and honor the 3,000 victims of that horrific day!
