I Will Never Forget

Those Lost Since 9/11 . . . . . . . . .pages 160 to

It is our honor to be able to serve the Fire and EMS com- munity through Fire News and to be able to compile this 20th Anniversary Tribute Issue honoring those that died and those that saved count- less lives on September 2001. We also wish to recog- nize those that are still seeing the effects of 9/11 and those that have passed away from 9/11 related cancers and res- piratory illnesses. It has been 20 years since attacks on our country took place in New York City, Washington, DC, and Shanksville, Pennsylvania. We hope that as you look at what has been compiled by the photographers, editors and staff at Fire News that we as a country and we as a nation never forget but always remember September 11, 2001. It is the duty of each of us to keep this memory alive for generations to follow and we hope that this special edition helps to assist in this goal in the years to come. We would also like to recognize all of the advertisers and Fire and EMS departments which have made this Special 20th Anniversary Edition possible. Through their generosity we will make contributions to five charities who are contributing in a positive way to families affect- ed by the devastating effects of 9/11. They include: The Terry Farrell Firefighter Fund, Lieutenant Joseph DiBernardo Memorial Foundation, Ray Pfeifer Foundation, Firefighter Cancer Support Network-NY Chapter and the FealGood Foundation. Without hesitation, we thank the Fire News staff who worked around the clock to meet the deadline for this pub- lication. Thank you to Gary Joyce, Dennis Whittam, Barbara Connolly, Marie Trotta and Bryan Lopez in the Editorial and Advertising departments. Additionally, we would like to thank Lynn Sedler, Cliff Chiesa and Greg Jones in the Art Department for their endless time and cre- ativity to make this a very special edition.
