9/11 at 20 – They Have Names

Posted by William A. Jacobson on September 11, 2021 21 Comments

Every year for the past decade I have written a 9/11 Anniversay post.

What I remember most that day. Sitting at my office desk in Providence, RI, when I saw something on AOL about a small plane hitting the World Trade Center. Seemed odd, but not unthinkable. Nothing to really worry about.

Among the many anniversary posts, I've written about the recording that Melissa Harrington Hughes left on her home answering machine for her husband, 9/11/01 and Memory:
