I lost my uncle on 9-11-2001 in the World Trade Center. I remember that day like it were yesterday. I was in history on the day it happened. My heart goes out to all the families who lost a loved one.

I grew up in New York and worked across the street in the Bankers Trust Building for a few years. I worked for a child care agency for a while, and I used to go to the state offices for meetings every once in a while. I moved to Atlanta, and I remember passing the lobby and seeing the first plane hit the building. I always knew that I probably knew someone who would have been in the building when the planes hit. Today, I found out that my grammar school classmate died in the attack. To all those who have lost loved ones, I have not forgotten, and I pray for you and those lost.

I remember that I was in middle school when this unforgettable and unforgivable act of hate happened. My school was put on lock down, and all of my teachers were crying or couldn't even hold on long enough to teach for anger and sorrow. Those who have fallen from September 11, 2001 through this current day will NEVER be forgotten! I am very sorry for those who have lost loved ones due to all of this hate and chaos. Those who have a family member who was or is in uniform should be proud of them for standing up for our freedom and for protecting all of us. They are living and, sad enough, many are dying, to protect their loved ones and those they do not even know. BE PROUD! Do not shed tears for them, for they died an honorable death for those they love. They will be missed and forever loved, but above all they WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!

I was nine years old ... I was sitting in my room ... on that red carpet ... playing as I used to ... having fun ... feeling nothing but happiness ... and then I heard my parents talking ... I asked: What is it? ... They answered: Something bad has happened.... I then went to school ... other children told me; I saw it in the news the next evening.... I was in China.... I wasn't even from America.... I was a nine-year-old human being, and I felt love ... love towards those I didn't know ... love towards those who died in the attack. Rest in peace.

I am 14 years old. When this event took place, I was in kindergarten. I remember my grandma picking me up early from school. When I got home my parents were crying. I couldn't understand why. Now that I am older, I have been doing a lot of research on the World Trade Center. It was truly something to cry over. My prayers to the families of everyone who lost their lives just doing their jobs.

This web site is affiliated with 24K Gold Music Shows - an oldies music showband performing in Central Florida. The members of the showband feel strongly that there were many heroes manifested during the onslaught of terror associated with 9-11, and present this site as a memorial to those whose lives were lost, and the loved ones they left behind.
24K Gold Music Shows perform primarily 50-60s Oldies, Elvis songs, DooWop, and older country music, as well as patriotic songs. All of the musicians, singers, dancers, and staff of the 24K Gold Music Shows extend their deepest sympathies to every one who lost loved ones on that terrible day.
24K Gold Music Shows performs an original 9-11 tribute song called "America Cried". In the live shows, they honor with the song not only the heroes of 9-11 but also those who are still alive: the police personnel, firefighters, emergency personnel, soldiers, and others who have served our country and kept us all safe.
Listen also to this beautiful, touching song "Love Can Build a Bridge" by 24K Gold Music Shows. Even though strictly speaking it's not a 9-11 memorial song, I still feel it is a very fitting song for the occasion!
