Members of the Madison Township Fire Department Honor Guard carry the American flag during the 9/11 Memorial Service held at Motts Military Museum on Sept. 11. The ceremony commemorated and honored the nearly 3,000 people who died on Sept. 11, 2001 as a result of the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in New York, the Pentagon in Washington, D.C., and United Flight 93 which crashed in Shanksville, Pa. Guest speaker Lt. Dominick Maggiore of the Fire Department of New York/EMS (retired), who was at Ground Zero when the World Trade Center was attacked, was the guest speaker and told the large crowd, “We all lost a little bit of ourselves that day. I hope the young people of today never have to feel that pain because it never goes away.” Following the ceremony, Groveport Mayor Lance Westcamp said, “This is an excellent ceremony that brings our community together. Lt. Maggiore did a wonderful job expressing our sorrows and respect.”







Many thanks to Firefighter Ed Dildine for faithfully putting together a wonderful program each year to remind us of what we lost and how we came together. God bless America!
