For many Americans, the 9/11 tragedy that rocked our sense of safety is a sad memory with lasting changes to our formerly carefree travel routines.
But for the victims’ families, like Beverly and Tom Burnett Sr., “it’s like it happened yesterday.”
When Fathers Jeff Ethen and Peter Kirchner of the Diocese of St. Cloud flew to New York City on Sept. 10, 2001, they had no idea that a cup of coffee would save their lives the very next day.
Sept. 11, 2011 is the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in New York City, one of the most horrific days in American history, a day that has changed our way of life in the United States and around the world.
