I had lost an Aunt in the north tower on top where she worked as a waitress and hostess, and I don't think she knew it was going to happen. I miss her an awful lot. My uncle Lee was in the tower, also, but he got out before the tower went down.

My son-in-law is a Canadian by birth. He came to this country, enlisted in the USMC, did his tour, then after 9-11 he said, "This isn't right. Someone needs to do something." So he re-enlisted in the USMC, where he still is, and is about to do his second tour in Iraq. I was an Army Ranger, and I greatly admire my son-in-law for his convictions and patriotism. I am proud of my daughter for marrying such a man and for sticking by his side and waiting for him when he is overseas and pulling such long hours while here stateside. There are so many young men and women born in this country who don't have the wherewithal to serve this great country in her time of need; it just makes me PROUD OF MY SON-IN-LAW!

Hey, sorry for everything that has happened on that terrible day, but I am thinking of you in Warialda, New South Wales, Australia. It has never really me me understand until I heard a little girl singing bout her daddy in heaven. I just wish I could replace someone who died, as I don't have to long to live. I am 21 with a heart condition. I just want you to know I have your deepest sorrows, and I wish to thank every person who helped the survivors of the September 11 attacks. SORRY!

I just can't seem to get that day out of my head. No matter what I'm doing, from time to time I find myself thinking about that day and how all I wanted to do was go home from work and be with my family, but I had to stay. I can't know for sure how the families of those who were lost feel, but I do know how my heart goes out to them and to the children who lost parents. I cannot believe that it's been almost 7 years already. Time has gone by, and our lives have gone on, but yet I still have not forgotten. Just wanted you all to know that. GOD BLESS AMERICA!

All they wanted was to go somewhere to see their loved ones they missed, but it wasn't meant to be.
The loss was great, for we all could see the world mourned together like one big family.
The planes, the flames, the smoke was too much to bear,
for families were torn apart from everywhere.
My heart goes out to all we have lost. May God bless us all; there is no bigger loss.

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!
